Time Clock for Staff

The Time Clock lets you clock in and out of your shifts directly in NetGym so your work hours are recorded accurately.

This article explains:

  • How to clock in and out

  • What to expect if something doesn’t work

  • When to check with your manager


When to Use the Time Clock

Use the Time Clock when:

  • You’re starting or ending a scheduled shift

  • You’re tracking approved work time outside of a scheduled shift (if enabled)

Not all studios use the Time Clock. If you don’t see clock-in options, it may not be enabled for your role or location.


How Clocking In & Out Works

Clocking In & Out for a Scheduled Shift

If your studio uses Time Clock for shifts:

  1. Open the NetGym mobile app

  2. Go to Schedule → My Schedule

  3. Select your shift

  4. Tap Clock In when your shift starts

  5. Tap Clock Out when your shift ends

Your clock-in will only work if:

  • You have permission to clock in

  • You’re within the allowed time window

  • Location/geofencing requirements (if used) are met

Your clock-out will only work if:

  • Geofencing requirements (if used) are met

If something doesn’t work, see the troubleshooting section below.


Clocking In & Out for Unscheduled Time (If Enabled)

Some studios allow time tracking for work that isn’t tied to a scheduled shift.

If this is enabled for you:

  1. Open the NetGym mobile app

  2. Go to the More tab

  3. Select Clock In

  4. Choose your location and team

  5. Add a note if needed

  6. Clock out when finished

If you don’t see this option, it may not be enabled for your role.


Viewing and Editing Your Time Entries

Navigate to My Profile → Time Clock to view:

  • Your clock-in and clock-out times

  • Notes you added

  • Past time entries

If your permissions allow you to edit your time clock entries, click the pencil icon in the time clock entry.


Setting your Clock In Reminder Preferences

If you wish to receive push notification reminders to clock in at the start of your shift, navigate to My Profile → Shift Notifications → Customize notifications by type and channel. Toggle on the Clock in and out reminders.


Important Things to Know 📌

  • Time Clock rules are set by your studio

  • Some locations require you to be on-site to clock in

  • Clock-ins may be restricted to a few minutes before your shift

  • Missed clock-outs may be flagged automatically

  • All time entries are logged for accuracy

If you’re unsure about any rules, check with your manager.


If You Can’t Clock In or Out

If something isn’t working, try these first:

  • Make sure location services are enabled on your phone

  • Confirm you’re at the correct studio location

  • Check that you’re clocking in close to your shift start time

If the issue continues, contact your manager. Most clock-in issues are related to studio settings, not something you did wrong.


Using the Time Clock on Mobile 📱

Time Clock is designed to be used from the NetGym mobile app.


Key Takeaways

  • Time Clock may or may not be used by your studio

  • What you see depends on your role and location

  • If something is missing, it’s usually a setup setting

  • Your manager can help if things don’t look right
