Yes. There are several time and attendance platforms that can handle overtime calculations and labor-rule compliance for event crews, especially if you need support for:
- variable schedules and call times
- union rules / work rules
- meal and rest break compliance
- daily and weekly overtime
- multiple job codes or departments
- mobile clock-in/out for crews on different venues
- approval workflows and exception alerts
Common options in this space include:
- UKG (Kronos) — strong for complex labor rules, overtime, unions, and enterprise workforce management.
- ADP Workforce Now / ADP Time & Attendance — good compliance features, scheduling, and payroll integration.
- Ceridian Dayforce — real-time labor and overtime tracking with strong compliance capabilities.
- Replicon — flexible time tracking and rules, often used for project-based or service crews.
- When I Work — simpler scheduling/time tracking; better for smaller crews, less robust for complex union rules.
- Deputy — solid scheduling and attendance, with rule-based overtime and break compliance.
- QuickBooks Time — straightforward time tracking, can work for smaller teams but limited for advanced labor compliance.
- Humanity / TCP Software — often used for scheduling and timekeeping with configurable labor rules.
For event crews specifically, the key is whether the platform can be configured for:
- event-based job costing
- differing rules by venue, union, or client
- automatic overtime triggers
- missed break alerts
- grace periods and rounded punches
- multi-location GPS or geofencing
- mobile offline clocking
- integration with payroll and invoicing
