Many jobs offered at freelance hiring websites are paid by the hour, so each freelancer needs to keep track of the time he/she spends performing a given task to charge the corresponding fee to his/her employer.
Upwork is one of such hiring sites, and it has its own desktop application to help freelancers monitor the time spent on a job. Besides allowing you to charge the correct amount of money, the records created by the program can serve to build your case in the event of a working time-related controversy with an employer.
First of all, you need to create a free Upwork account to download and use the program. Then, you can log into it using your account information. The program will show your current contracts, and the time spent on each so you can keep a record of the time you have devoted to them.
Also, the program lets you contact people from your contact list. These may be coworkers or other members of the community. You may ask job-related questions or contact them for collaboration or other reasons. Moreover, in the event of a dispute, you can contact Upwork to settle the controversy.
If you are a freelancer working with an Upwork contractor, then this program can be very useful for you.
