Solutions Employee productivity
Employee productivity tracking that shows where work time goes and how to improve it
Mera Work splits working hours into productive, unproductive, neutral and idle time, using the categories you set by team. Managers see trends, workloads and changed patterns across the organisation, and a review starts from the same numbers for all.

How working hours are classified
Apps, websites and activity go through your category rules and come out as four kinds of time, measured the same way for the whole team.
Recorded
Apps and websites
Applications and websites in use, by name.
Active and idle time
Keyboard and mouse activity, with idle after the interval you set.
Department and person
Who the time belongs to, so the right rules apply.
Four kinds of time
Productive
Time in apps and websites marked productive for that person's department.
Unproductive
Time in apps and websites marked unproductive, listed in the Productive vs Unproductive report.
Neutral
Time in anything not yet labelled, until you decide.
Idle
No keyboard or mouse activity for longer than the idle interval.

- Apps and websites behind unproductive time
- Their own record visible where you allow it

Common questions about employee productivity tracking
What is employee productivity tracking software?
It shows how work time is used: how much is productive, where it goes and how that changes over time. Mera Work does this from the hours, activity and apps recorded on work computers.
How does Mera Work decide what is productive?
You decide. Apps and websites fall into built in categories, and you mark a category, or an app or site, as productive or unproductive for the organisation, a department or a person. Anything unlabelled stays neutral.
Is activity alone a measure of productivity?
No. Activity separates working time from idle time. Mera Work reads it alongside the tools in use, the categories you set and the hours on projects.
Can team members see their own productivity?
Yes, where you allow it. Access follows roles, so a team member sees their own record and a manager sees the teams that report to them.
Can we compare teams and departments?
Yes. Reports group by manager, location or department, and categories can be set per department so teams are measured by their own work.
Does it help spot overwork?
Yes. The Attendance report shows overtime above expected hours, and User Task shows a person's hours across projects, so long days and heavy workloads show early.
What is Anomaly Analysis?
An AI powered report, in beta and available to all customers. It reads time, activity and screenshots together and flags people whose pattern has changed.

Install the agent on two computers, review the categories, and the first productive hours appear the same day.
