Logistics time tracking covers more than a start time and end time. A useful record shows the worker, date, work location or route, task or job, hours worked each workday, and total hours worked each workweek for employees covered by the FLSA minimum wage or overtime provisions. Warehouse staff, couriers, drivers, and logistics coordinators all need records that match the way their work is scheduled.
The U.S. transportation and warehousing industry had 6.6 million workers in June 2024, with warehousing and storage at 26.9%, truck transportation at 23.5%, and couriers and messengers at 16.4%. That mix matters. A logistics team often needs shift-based warehouse records, mobile driver entries, delivery activity notes, and coordinator time tied to planning, inventory, purchasing, transportation, or administrative work.
A logistics time record works best when it follows the operational unit the team already uses. A warehouse worker can track a night shift against receiving, picking, packing, or sorting. A courier can record delivery time against a route or dispatch batch. A coordinator can track time spent on inventory review, carrier scheduling, shipment exception handling, or purchase order follow-up.
Activity context keeps the record useful after payroll closes. Warehouse and material-moving workers often keep records of goods moved, packaged, or sorted, including package numbers in some workflows. Driver workflows add another layer because heavy and tractor-trailer truck drivers typically maintain working-hours logs under federal and state regulations, and route planning must account for legally required rest periods.
Nights, weekends, and long days are common in logistics, but the schedule label does not decide federal overtime by itself. Under the FLSA federal baseline, covered nonexempt employees must receive overtime pay for hours worked over 40 in a fixed 168-hour workweek at not less than 1.5 times the regular rate of pay. Hours cannot be averaged across two or more workweeks for FLSA overtime purposes.
The FLSA does not require premium pay solely for Saturday, Sunday, holiday, or regular rest-day work unless weekly overtime is triggered or another law, policy, contract, or agreement applies. A clean logistics timesheet therefore separates actual hours worked, paid time not worked, workweek totals, and any state, local, contract, or company-rule fields that affect the final payroll review.
A free tool is enough when you need a one-off weekly total, a quick export, or a simple record for a single worker or route. It stops being enough when warehouse, driver, courier, and coordinator time must feed payroll review, job costing, billing, or management reporting. At that point, the record needs approvals, locked periods, corrections, and a reliable handoff.
Everhour fits the managed workflow by turning tracked logistics time into weekly timesheets that managers can approve, reject, partially approve, and lock before payroll or billing review. That matters when nonstandard schedules, mobile work, and multiple job types create late edits, missing entries, or unclear totals across a busy workweek.

Logistics teams should track the date, worker, shift, route or site, task category, daily hours worked, and total hours worked each workweek. Useful task categories include receiving, picking, packing, sorting, dispatch, delivery, inventory review, route planning, and shipment administration. Records for employees covered by the FLSA minimum wage or overtime provisions must include daily hours worked and total workweek hours.
Warehouse night shifts do not automatically create federal overtime. Under the FLSA federal baseline, covered nonexempt employees receive overtime only for hours worked over 40 in a fixed 168-hour workweek, unless another law, policy, contract, or agreement creates a separate premium. Night, weekend, holiday, or regular rest-day work alone does not trigger federal overtime premium pay.
Covered nonexempt employee hours cannot be averaged across two or more workweeks for FLSA overtime purposes. The workweek is a fixed, regularly recurring period of seven consecutive 24-hour periods. A worker with 46 hours in one workweek and 34 hours in the next still needs the first week reviewed on its own.
Driver working-hours logs and payroll time records serve related but different review needs. Heavy and tractor-trailer truck drivers typically maintain working-hours logs under federal and state regulations, including rest-period planning. Payroll review still needs accurate wage-and-hour records, including daily hours worked and total hours worked each workweek for covered nonexempt employees.
Federal rules require employers to preserve payroll records for at least three years and basic time and earnings records, such as daily start and stop time cards or sheets, for at least two years. State rules, contracts, company policy, litigation holds, or customer billing requirements can require longer retention, so logistics teams should align retention with every applicable obligation.
Everhour Timesheets collect weekly project hours and working hours by person, so managers can review logistics time before payroll or billing. Employees submit time for approval, and admins can approve, reject, partially approve, or lock submitted entries when corrections or final review are needed.
Everhour Reporting turns logged time, budgets, costs, and project data into customizable reports with columns, grouping, filters, and date ranges. A logistics manager can group time by project, member, client, or other available fields, then export reports in CSV, Excel/XLSX, or PDF for review.
