Key points to review from the start

The reform points to greater demands on control, evidence and inspection readiness.

  • A more reliable digital record that is accessible for reviews.
  • Greater relevance of data retention and record immutability.
  • Reinforcement of the right to disconnect and proper handling of hybrid models.

How to bring it into operations without friction

To adapt well, the company needs to combine technology, procedure and training.

  • Review how teams clock in today and which exceptions are not properly covered.
  • Update internal policies for flexible hours, remote work and right to disconnect.
  • Verify that the system offers traceability and reporting useful for audit.
