Biometric Time and Attendance : Providing reliable time clock solution

Biometric time and attendance system is one of the most successful application of biometric technology. With the integration and use of biometric technology getting simpler, many corporations are venturing down the biometric road to verify the time and attendace of their employees.

Biometric time and attendance has taken a starring role in today's competative markets. As labor cost becomes more and more a factor in determining the profitability of business, the ability to reduce employee labor theft has become a principal goal.

Due to this basic reason, we will only see many organisations by-passing the traditional punch clock and advancing to biometric time and attendance systems.

One of the main advantages of a biometric time and attendance system is it avoids "buddy-punching". Buddy punching was a major loophole which employees could exploit in the traditional time attendace systems. With biometrics now in place, companies have now put an end to that loophole. Aprt from that, biometric time and attendance systems fulfil all other basic features required.

A biometric time & attendance system, will have a user specify whether he(or she) is clocking-in or clocking-out. By using fingerprints(or other biometric traits) to determine identity, buddy-punching problems can be totally eliminated as well as other fraud. Attendance of each employee is printed on the attendance report. The attendance report can easily be exported to facilitate for payroll purposes. Employee working hours, overtime, etc. is correctly calculated and salaries can be paid accordingly.
