Why work time tracking fails in small businesses
Between daily operations and client work there is little time for admin – and that is exactly where risk grows.
Legal obligation
Since the German Federal Labour Court ruling of 2022, small businesses must also track working hours systematically. Spreadsheets are neither reliable nor audit-proof.
Vacation by shout
Vacation requests on paper or by shout get lost, overlapping absences surface too late, and remaining leave is guesswork.
Overtime without overview
Often nobody knows exactly who has how much overtime – until it matters in the annual review or in a dispute.
No time for IT projects
A solution that needs servers, training or an admin is out of the question. It has to work with zero overhead.

Work time tracking in small businesses: compliance made simple
The obligation to record working time does not only apply to corporations: since the German Federal Labour Court ruling of 2022, employers must systematically track their employees' working hours – regardless of company size, and similar rules are emerging across Europe. For small businesses without an HR department, the question is: how do you meet this obligation without creating an administrative monster? The answer is a digital solution that is set up in minutes and makes daily life simpler afterwards, not more complicated.
Jomawo covers the whole process: employees record start of work, breaks and end of day via check-in and check-out – on PC or smartphone, no installation. The software calculates net working time, overtime and undertime automatically based on the configured working time models. Vacation requests and sick notes run digitally through the approval workflow, remaining leave is tracked automatically, and the team calendar prevents overlaps. One tool replaces paper timesheets, vacation lists and spreadsheets.
For payroll you export all hours as PDF, CSV or Excel and hand them to your payroll office or accountant. Roles and permissions let team leads manage their own areas. And costs stay predictable: getting started is free with up to 160 hours per month, and Jomawo grows with your company – up to the Enterprise plan. Built and hosted in Germany, GDPR-compliant.
