How Biometrics Works
Using the latest technology, the device is programmed to read the individual features of each employee’s fingerprints. Upon arrival to work, the employee simply runs a fingertip under the sensor. The device recognizes the employee by fingerprint, and sends time information directly to the main database. Once information is sent to the database, managers can view it in real time. When it’s time to leave, the employee once again runs a fingertip under the sensor.
Because employees are recognized by fingerprint, there is absolutely no way to trick the system. Time cards are accurate, and colleagues are prevented from buddy punching. Administration has the peace of mind of knowing that their time data is error free.
More Benefits of Biometrics
In addition to improving the accuracy of time, the Mitrefinch biometric system also improves efficiency. Once data is sent to the central storage system, supervisors and managers can view reports (such as absence and entitlements), schedule shifts, and analyze payroll. The software can be configured to automatically calculate hours and pay according to your organisation’s system, and can export payroll data directly to most payroll systems.
Because the system uses individual fingerprints to track the workforce, it controls working hours, minimizes absences, and reduces overtime.
A Choice for All Organisations
Desktop readers with biometric functionality are ideal for businesses of all sizes, in all industries. Whether you have just a few employees or a few thousand, using biometric desktop readers to track their time ensures workers are in the right place, at the right time.
Biometrics desktop readers are easy to install, and require no specialized training or education. Because the system can be configured to work in a variety of situations, they are ideal for organisations with varied working patterns and pay structures.
