Compliance checklist
Clockr takes care of everything
Fully compliant
with Belgian labour law
The time registration obligation applies to virtually all sectors in the private sector. Always consult your social secretariat for sector-specific regulations.
The labour inspectorate can impose fines for non-compliance. The amounts vary but can run into thousands of euros per employee. Furthermore, in the event of employment disputes, a company may be at a disadvantage if no complete records exist.
Employees must have access to their own records. In Clockr, employees can submit their day and always have visibility of their data.
The retention obligation is a minimum of 5 years. Clockr automatically stores all data for the required period and ensures secure, encrypted storage.
The time registration obligation also applies to remote work. Clockr automatically detects when employees are active, regardless of whether they are in the office or working from home.
Start today and ensure your company is fully compliant with Belgian labour legislation.
