HR automation

Attendance Tracking

Records attendance digitally through biometrics, mobile geofencing, QR codes or web check-in, flags anomalies, syncs with HR and payroll, and alerts managers or parents to absences. Works for staff and for student class attendance.

The business problem

Paper registers, punch cards and spreadsheets are slow, easy to manipulate and cause payroll mismatches. In schools, manual roll calls take class time and absences reach parents late. Inconsistent records create compliance risks and disputes.

The manual process today

Where the time goes before automation:

  1. Collect sign-in sheets or punch cards
  2. Type attendance into spreadsheets
  3. Reconcile absences with leave records
  4. Call or message parents about absent students
