Abstract
Over the years the process of manual attendance has been carried out which is not only time consuming but also provides erroneous result. Automated time and attendance monitoring system provides many benefits to organizations. This reduces the need of pen and paper based manual attendance tracking system. Following this thought, we have proposed a smart location based time and attendance tracking system which is implemented on android mobile application on smartphone reducing the need of additional biometric scanner device. The location of an organization has a specific location, which can be determine by the GPS. Each employee’s location can be determined by the GPS using smartphone. This location is defined as a key of time and attendance tracking in our paper.
Highlights
Attendance monitoring and working hour calculation is very essential for almost every institution or organization
On the other hand, automated time and attendance systems implies the use of electronic tags, barcode badges, magnetic stripe cards, biometrics, and touch screens [2] in place of paper sheets
Using an automated system for time and attendance monitoring reduces the errors of manual system and conserve optimal amount of time
Summary
Attendance monitoring and working hour calculation is very essential for almost every institution or organization. On the other hand, automated time and attendance systems implies the use of electronic tags, barcode badges, magnetic stripe cards, biometrics (hand, fingerprint, or facial), and touch screens [2] in place of paper sheets. In these aforementioned techniques, employees touch or swipe in order to provide their identification and the entering and leaving time to calculate working hours. Using an automated system for time and attendance monitoring reduces the errors of manual system and conserve optimal amount of time These automated systems require heterogeneous devices need to be located in the organization which is costly. Any employee crossing the area border with a smartphone and the running application will be tracked automatically
