Travel pay as policy, not negotiation
Field teams get paid for getting there. But when travel compensation lives in spreadsheets and text messages, every trip becomes a small negotiation. Telometris turns travel pay into configured policy: the company defines the rules once, and the system applies them to every assignment identically.
Four compensation methods, one policy
Administrators define travel tiers, each with its own method: a fixed amount per trip, an hourly rate for travel time, a percentage of the worker's wage, or a mileage rate. Different distances or job types can carry different tiers.
Tiers are defined once as company policy, then applied per assignment: each worker's project assignment carries the tier that governs their travel pay. The rules are set up front — never negotiated trip by trip.
Computed by the server, not claimed by the worker
Telometris computes travel compensation from the assignment itself — who was assigned, where, under which tier. Workers never type in an amount, and managers never audit hand-entered claims. Eligibility is validated from the assignment record.
The computed amounts land in reports and CSV exports alongside hours and expenses, so the full cost of putting a person on a site — labor, travel, and expenses — is visible per project.
Common inquiries
What travel compensation methods does Telometris support?
Fixed amount per trip, an hourly rate for travel time, a percentage of the worker's wage, and mileage-based rates — configured as company policy tiers.
Can workers enter their own travel compensation amounts?
No. Amounts are computed by the system from the assignment and the company's configured tier, which prevents disputes and inconsistent payouts.
Do travel costs show up in project profitability?
Yes. Travel compensation appears alongside labor and expenses in reporting, so the full cost of each project is visible.
