Crews on five job sites. One record for every one of them.
Offer letters signed on a phone, safety policies every new hire acknowledges before day one, OSHA and EPA cards that warn you before they lapse, and GPS-verified punches by job and cost code — in the same app your crews already clock in with.

From the offer to the job site to payroll, nothing re-entered.
HR at a contractor is usually the owner, a truck and a folder.
Hired on a handshake
"$27, start Monday at Harbor St." Rate retyped into payroll later — wrong.
Safety policy nobody signed
There's a binder in the trailer. An incident happens and "they were told" isn't on paper.
Certs expire on the job
An EPA card or OSHA 10 lapses mid-project. The inspector notices first.
Hours that don't match the job
Paper timesheets, guessed start times, no cost code — labor cost by project is a guess.
Built for crews, job sites and the people who run them.
From signed offer to first punch — before they reach the site.
Send the offer to a candidate's phone with the rate benchmarked against your current crew. When they sign, PunchPro creates their record and assigns the right checklist: safety policy, I-9, W-4, direct deposit, OSHA and EPA card uploads. Clock-in stays locked until the required items are done.
- Workflows per role: laborer, apprentice, journeyman, foreman, office
- Safety and job-site policies signed before day one
- No printer, no trailer visit — all from the phone
OSHA, EPA, CDL and trade licenses that warn you before they lapse.
Mark the certs each role requires. PunchPro alerts you and the employee at 60, 30 and 7 days, asks for the renewal upload from the field, and can keep an expired required cert off the schedule until it's renewed.
- OSHA 10/30, EPA 608, forklift, aerial lift, CDL, state licenses
- Expired items flagged on the record and your daily checklist
- Renewals uploaded from a phone, approved in one tap
Every punch verified at the site and coded to the job.
Crews clock in from their phone with location context captured at the punch — not tracked all day. Each punch carries the job and cost code assigned at onboarding, so labor hours by project and by code are real numbers, not reconstructions. Overtime builds in view during the week, not on payday.
- Construction time tracking with GPS on the punch
- Cost codes assigned per employee and per job
- Overtime visible on Wednesday, not after the check
Crews by site, time off with coverage in view, hours ready for payroll.
Build the week by job site, publish it to everyone's phone, approve PTO knowing who else is off, then review the pay period with guardrails that flag missing punches and overtime before you export to QuickBooks, ADP, Paychex or Paycom.
- Scheduling by job site and crew
- Time off requests and balances in the app
- Payroll review and export to the provider you already use
What PunchPro does for a contractor — and what it doesn't.
PunchPro manages the people: hiring paperwork, records, certs, policies, time, scheduling and payroll prep. It is not a project-management, estimating or certified-payroll platform, and it works alongside the ones you use.

HR software for construction, answered plainly.
What does HR software for a construction company need to do?
Hire fast with a signed offer, collect I-9, W-4 and safety acknowledgments before day one, track certifications that expire, keep one record per worker, schedule crews by site, verify time at the job, and hand payroll clean hours by cost code. PunchPro does all of that in one app; it does not do estimating, project management or certified payroll reporting.
Does PunchPro track my crew's location all day?
No. Location context is recorded when someone punches in or out. It verifies the punch at the site, not the day. There is no continuous background tracking.
Can I require safety training or a policy before someone works?
Yes. Any onboarding step — a safety policy signature, an OSHA card upload — can block the first punch until it's done. Waivers are logged.
Which certifications can it track?
OSHA 10/30, EPA 608, forklift and aerial lift, CDL, first aid, state trade licenses, and anything else with an expiry date. Mark which roles require each and alerts go out at 60, 30 and 7 days.
Does it handle certified payroll or prevailing wage?
No. PunchPro records and approves hours by job and cost code and exports them to your payroll provider or reporting tool, where certified payroll is produced.
Does it replace my project management software?
No. PunchPro manages the people, not the project. It works alongside platforms that handle estimating, drawings, RFIs and job costing.
How do cost codes work?
Assign cost codes to each employee at onboarding and to each job. Punches carry the code automatically, so labor hours roll up by job and code without anyone filling in a timesheet.
Will my crew actually use it?
Clocking in is one tap. They see their schedule, hours, PTO balance and anything they need to sign in the same app, which is why they keep opening it.
What does it cost?
$39.99 per month per business plus $7 per active user per month, every feature included. 14-day free trial, no credit card required.
Run the people side of the job as well as you run the job.
Set up your crews, send your first offer, and run your next pay period on real numbers.
