Secure and Accurate Attendance with Biometric Technology

Tracking employee attendance has evolved from paper registers and punch cards to biometrics at this work pace. This technology has the opportunity for better accuracy, transparency, and discipline to workforce management. The biometric attendance system leverages identifiable biological attributes like fingerprints, face and iris to ensure the actual person shows up to mark their attendance.

Biometric attendance systems' special ability is the reduction of time theft, buddy punching, and manual errors from humans. With the information on biometrics, employers are able to calculate hours worked, manage leave time, track scheduler time with respect to punctuality, and develop an accountability framework to make succeed, while simultaneously reducing the administrative burden on human resourcing when collecting attendance and absence accounting.

Biometrics system is eliminated as barriers of how fast, secure, and easy they are for every worker. In order for the employee to mark attendance they scan their form of biometrics, and they go. All forms of attendance require some form of identity (ID) and nothing else (PIN, etc and remembering to log in, etc). Past performance and attendance records are accessible and the organization can rely on the biometric system in all cases, particularly when multiple shifts or use of rotating teams from week to week.

Biometric attendance systems allows for more straightforward processing of payroll, once up and running. If the biometric attendance is connected directly to establish salary calculations with attendance records there is less room for disagreements about attendance logs and real identity issues. Having managers be able to see work pattern for employee productivity gives better data to management to allow them to make more informed decisions on future actions in the workplace, and improves the ability to adequately manage a fair workplace culture.
