Types of Worker Accounts

There are different kinds of Worker accounts. When you create a new Worker account, you are asked what to select a “Worker type.” Below is a description of each type and also a how they are different. Workers may be switched from one user type to another at any point when the worker is clocked out.

  1. Hourly Worker:  Hourly Worker is the standard Worker type and is automatically selected since this is how the majority of SYNCrew Workers are set up. Hourly workers use a specific phone to clock in, clock out, take meal breaks, snap pictures, and view their hours worked. See more about Hourly Worker Type.
  2. Non-Hourly worker: Non-hourly workers can use the mobile app primarily to collect photographs and share their current location. They are not able to see their time worked, take meal breaks or change tasks to track milage and travel time. See more about Non-Hourly Worker Type.
  3. Manager: Manager Workers use the app to track their own time and breaks and are able to take pictures. They can also add and view time for themselves and Managed workers both from the app or by logging into work.syncrew.com See more about Manager Worker Type.
  4. Managed Worker: Managed worker accounts are for employees who do not use the app and have their hours entered by an administrator or a Manager Worker (described above). See more about Managed Worker Type.
