TomTom WORK launches two products to help record working hours and mileage more efficiently
Two new remote control devices for TomTom LINK* designed to save costs and further enhance efficiency
TomTom WORK, the division of TomTom dedicated to commercial vehicle fleets, today announces the launch of two low cost, easily used and practical devices to help businesses with their time management and logging obligations. The ‘Remote LINK Working Time’ device enables businesses to track the hours of every employee who is working away from the office while the ‘Remote LINK Logbook’ keeps an accurate record of mileage clocked up on a company vehicle whether it be work-related or personal usage.
TomTom WORK Remote Link Working Time
The Remote LINK Working Time not only offers new business insight into employee activity on the road – it also transforms employee productivity by removing the need for manual timesheets. Designed as an easy-to-use remote control, it enables each employee to identify themselves and record their working status by ‘clicking’ their ID key on the remote. This information is sent automatically back to the office through the TomTom LINK. Using TomTom’s web-based reporting tool, managers can run reports on when employees started, paused and stopped work.

The Remote LINK Logbook, meanwhile, boosts efficiency on the road and in the office. Simply by clicking a button at the start of each journey, employees can register it as a commute, a personal trip or a work-related journey. Individual and group mileage can be monitored by day, week, month or year, and all data can be integrated with payroll and billing systems for smarter, faster calculations and payments. Both of these remote control products can also save considerable costs by reducing administration.
Boost productivity
All logbook information is presented in easy-to-read graphs on the TomTom dashboard. You can look at an
overview of the workforce, or individual records for a particular driver or trip.
- Field workers save the time usually spent manually recording mileage
- Office staff no longer wait for, or work with, the driver’s written records to calculate reimbursements
Control costs
Written mileage records can lack credibility. The Remote LINK Logbook gives you an accurate record of all
business, private and commuter mileage for each vehicle. And you can plot all of this data on graphs to
monitor individual and group mileage by day, week, month or year.
- Calculate using actual, not estimated, business mileage
- Monitor real-time or historic mileage against set benchmarks
- Spot trends quickly and easily, so you can take action if required
Increase efficiency
Employees will be more careful about how they use company vehicles once the record-keeping is
automated. With the Remote LINK Logbook you can also improve business processes by integrating mileage
reporting into back-end systems for payroll and billing.
- Save several minutes each day per driver, and even more time in the office
- Provide activity-based accounting for your customers showing the mileage for each job**
- Create separate records of private and business miles for tax purposes
Improve fleet management
The TomTom LINK also gives you much greater insight into how your vehicles are being used, so you can
manage them better.
- Manage resources effectively by tracking the exact position of a vehicle, in real-time and historically
- Promote a safer, environment-friendly driving style by managing
important KPIs relating to driving behaviour
Availability and pricing
The Remote LINK Working Time and Remote LINK Logbook will be made available during the second quarter of 2010. The recommended price is £69 for each device and £35 for ten ID keys to use with the Working Time device.
