Choosing the Right Electronic Onboarding and Time Management Solution for Your Farm

Running a farm today means managing more than crops and schedules - it means managing people, compliance, and time. Whether you’re overseeing hundreds of seasonal employees or juggling hiring and training on a smaller scale, efficiency is everything.

That’s why Reliable Business Technology (RBT) and Harvust have teamed up to deliver a fully connected workforce solution, combining Harvust’s industry-leading electronic onboarding with RBT’s powerful Attendance on Demand time and attendance platform. Together, they help farms hire faster, stay compliant, and manage labor hours with accuracy - from field to packing shed.

For Enterprise Farms

400+ peak seasonal employees | Mature HR functions | Complex technical systems

Large operations depend on precision. But when HR, payroll, and timekeeping don’t sync, the result is wasted time, duplicate data entry, and compliance risks.

RBT and Harvust deliver a seamless experience that connects onboarding to attendance, payroll, and compliance - automatically.

Here’s how RBT + Harvust work together for enterprise efficiency:

  • Electronic signatures for all hiring documents (I-9s, W-4s, and more), cutting hiring time in half

  • Mobile onboarding and OSHA-compliant safety training, available on any device

  • Multilingual communication tools that keep every worker informed and engaged

  • Automatic employee setup in RBT’s Attendance on Demand, ensuring new hires are ready to clock in from day one

  • Biometric time clocks for packing sheds and high-traffic areas - eliminating “buddy punching” and improving accountability

  • Mobile timekeeping with offline capabilities - perfect for crews working in remote fields without reliable internet access

  • Automatic meal premium calculations and built-in compliance tools to meet wage and hour regulations

  • Real-time dashboards that give managers instant visibility into hours, absences, and productivity

From onboarding to clocking in, every step is streamlined, secure, and compliant. With RBT and Harvust, your operation runs as efficiently as your harvest schedule.

For Family Farms

50–400 peak seasonal employees | Ad hoc HR processes | Overworked administrative staff

On a family farm, time is precious - and paperwork can feel endless. Between hiring, training, and tracking hours, it’s easy for details to slip through the cracks.

RBT and Harvust take the stress out of managing people, so you can focus on managing your farm.

Here’s what you get:

  • Simple electronic onboarding - no printing, scanning, or chasing down signatures

  • Built-in safety training content with OSHA-ready recordkeeping

  • Automatic integration with Attendance on Demand, so new employees are ready to clock in immediately

  • Mobile timekeeping for crews working in the field, even without internet - data syncs automatically when back online

  • Biometric devices that prevent buddy punching and ensure accurate payroll

  • Automatic compliance tracking, including meal premiums, breaks, and overtime rules

  • Multilingual messaging that ensures every worker knows what’s expected

It’s everything you need to hire, train, and track your team - without the headache.
