New flat pack furniture store in Exeter to create 300 jobs

A new store belonging to one of the biggest names in the flat pack industry will be opened in Exeter in 2015, and beside offering customers faster and easier access to the company’s products, it will also lead to the creation of around 300 jobs.

According to a recent report, Swedish giant IKEA plans to submit a formal application for the site in around one month’s time. Depending on planning approval, building work on the new store is due to start at the beginning of 2014, and it should be ready for opening in 2015.

The site will be a fairly large one, since it’s estimated to have a floor area of about 20,000 square meters. Any store of this size and magnitude requires the installation of an extensive access control and time attendance system, and this is exactly where Time & Attendance South West can help.

Whether we’re talking about simple access control solutions or more complex systems, also including extensive Time and Attendance features, Time & Attendance South West has the necessary expertise to provide customers with a complete and comprehensive bespoke solution, that will perfectly fit their requirements.

Our advanced smart card time and attendance system includes European Working Time Directive checking and reporting, ensuring that your company remains compliant with both regional and national legislation.

Furthermore, the system also offers a series of additional features employers such as IKEA (and others) would certainly find handy, such as Weekly Clock Card, Payroll Summary, Absence Summary, Fire Roll Call or Shift Swapping.
