🛡️ Security
Time Clock Software for Security Guard Companies
Guards work around the clock at posts you can't watch in person. CKZ confirms where they clocked in, keeps a clean audit trail, and handles the 24/7 rotation without a spreadsheet.
Common Security Staffing Challenges
What post-based scheduling makes complicated
No way to confirm a guard is at their post
GPS geofencing confirms clock-ins happened within range of the assigned post. Attempts outside the zone are blocked or flagged — coordinates are logged with every punch.
24/7 rotations are hard to schedule manually
Overnight, weekend, and holiday coverage rotate constantly. Shift scheduling with color-coded shift types keeps every post staffed without guesswork — and open shifts let guards pick up extra coverage themselves.
Clients ask for proof of coverage
When a client questions whether a post was staffed at a given hour, you need a real record — not a guess. Every clock-in, edit, and approval is logged in the Audit Log with a timestamp and the acting supervisor's name.
Overtime on double shifts adds up fast
A guard covering a double shift needs sign-off first. OT pre-authorization keeps a supervisor in the loop before extra hours are worked, not after they show up on payroll.
How CKZ Fits Security Companies
Feature by feature
Confirm every guard clocked in at their assigned post.
Define a geofence around each post or client site. Punches from outside that zone are blocked or flagged, and exact GPS coordinates are logged with every clock-in — a real record for client billing disputes or incident reviews.

A real answer when a client asks "was this post covered?"
Every punch, edit, approval, and denial is recorded automatically — timestamp, acting supervisor, and what changed. Nothing can be quietly altered without a trace, which matters when a client or an insurer comes asking questions.

Guard #7 — double shift
Cover a post, and know about overtime before it happens.
Post an uncovered shift and any qualified guard can volunteer — approve with one click. When someone's covering a double, they submit an OT request first, so a supervisor signs off before the extra hours are worked, not after.
