Ralco vs SHIFT by GEKON

RALCO is the intelligence layer for construction operations, bringing together workforce data, compliance, and jobsite workflows into a single platform that helps contractors make better operational decisions.

SHIFT is the time clock for construction crews. Your hours are recorded where you are standing, at the minute you press the button, and nobody has to remember them on Friday. This is a company app. To use it you need a company code from your foreman. CLOCK IN AND OUT ON SITE Tap I'M IN when you arrive. The app checks that you are at the job site before it records anything, so your hours are tied to a real place and a real time. No paper, no phone calls, no arguing about it on Friday. YOUR DAY, IN FRONT OF YOU A running timer shows the hours you are on the clock right now. A calendar shows the days you worked and the total for the week, so you can check your own pay before anyone else does. THE DAILY SAFETY ATTESTATION Before your first clock-in each day you confirm the safety statements and sign. It takes a few seconds, and it is the record that protects you. YOUR OSHA CARD Photograph it once. The office reviews it, the app tells you when it is approved, and it warns you before it expires. A PHOTOGRAPH AT THE END OF THE SHIFT One picture records the state of the work when you left. If the camera will not open, you can still clock out — the app records that you could not, so nobody has to guess later. WORKS IN ENGLISH, SPANISH AND RUSSIAN Every screen, all three languages, switched whenever you like. FOR FOREMEN Submit change orders from the site, with photographs, without going back to the office. WHAT YOU NEED TO START A company code from your foreman, and your name. Nothing else — no email, no password. WHAT THE APP USES Your location, to confirm you are at the site when you clock in or out. If your company switches on site checks, also from time to time while you are clocked in, even with the app closed, so the office knows if you leave the site — this needs location set to "Always", and it stops the moment you clock out. The camera, for your OSHA card and the end-of-shift photograph. The app never tracks you between shifts.
