Electronic work-hour records in Mexico, from the phone
Attendance software for companies in Mexico: a time clock on the phone, with GPS and photo, that keeps the electronic work-hour record, calculates double and triple overtime and is ready for the 40-hour reform.
The requirement: electronic work-hour records
The reform to Mexico's Federal Labor Law sets the electronic work-hour record in article 132, section XXXIV, mandatory starting January 1, 2027.
The same reform gradually reduces the maximum workweek from 48 to 40 hours between 2026 and 2030, so the limits used to calculate overtime change every year.
This is general information. Check with your labor advisor to see how it applies to your company.
How attendance tracking works
Employees clock in from their phone
They record start and end times with the server time, their location, an optional photo and the branch or unit where they work. It also works offline.
Supervisors see the map and lateness
From the map they check where each person clocked in and who arrived late, with department filters.
Corrections need a justification
If a record needs a correction, it is made with a justification someone approves, and both are kept.
HR exports the report
Download the attendance report for the period in PDF or Excel.
Ready for an STPS inspection
The PDF and Excel report includes clock-ins, clock-outs, daily status, regular hours, double and triple overtime, and the justification for every correction.
Records that cannot be altered
- No one can edit or delete an attendance record.
- Records form an integrity chain with a daily seal.
- The "Verify integrity" button checks that nothing changed.
- Records are kept for at least one year after an employee leaves.
Shifts and overtime
- 24-hour shifts and a shift calendar by department.
- Overtime your payroll manager approves before it is paid.
- Weekly limits that change every year as the 40-hour reform moves forward.
- Connected to Payroll and Vacations.
Privacy
- Location is captured only at the moment of clocking in or out, not throughout the workday.
- The map has its own permission, so only the people you authorize can see it.

The module separates regular, double and triple hours using the weekly limits for the current year. Your payroll manager approves them and they move to Payroll. Check with your labor advisor about the limits that apply to your company.
