India is growing with the fast pace of digitisation especially due to high penetration of mobile, and prevalence of fast speed. Most of the urban areas, and a large part of rural India is covered under 5G. In the coming years, the internet speed will increase.
In
all these backgrounds of digitalisation, and advanced technology, Human
resource management is undergoing possibly the greatest transformation.
Old-fashioned methods of attendance, including paper-based or card-based
systems are the past. Companies are adopting newer and safer ones, such as
biometric readers and facial recognition systems. These advancements are also a part of the larger "Make-in-India" campaign, that
focuses on developing solutions with locally sourced components.
Smart Attendance and Why it
Matters in India
There
are millions of working professionals across various industries in India,
ranging from MNCs to SMEs. Manually handling attendance is a very difficult and
time consuming process that also can not be trusted. At the end of the day it
is your time and money invested and as the companies are growing, the
requirement is to have something more robust, quicker, and efficient to manage
their HR.
Incorporating
biometric attendance system and
facial recognition software, the system ensures accurate, tamper-proof and
scalable technology for employee clock in, clock out. These changes save time
and are in line with the country’s digital push while making workplaces more
futuristic and secure.
How Facial Recognition &
Biometric Attendance Are Changing HR In India?
Better Accuracy and
Security
This
technology matches the facial image of the employee against the registered
profile. It makes sure that only the right person gets a marked present. Facial
Recognition, unlike Fingerprint Recognition, is not affected by dirt, sweat,
skin damage, etc. What’s more, because it’s difficult to reproduce a face
image, the security is much more ironclad.
No Buddy Punching
One
of the biggest problems in traditional attendance systems was “buddy punching”
where one staffer would punch in on the behalf of another staffer. The above
issue can be completely solved by the use of facial recognition. It can verify
in real time that the user and the employee are the same person.
Touchless and Hygienic
Touchless
solutions are more important than ever in a post-pandemic world to help
minimize the spread of germs. As touchless facial recognition technology, it
offers a hygienic and safe alternative to conventional device operation that
uses physical contact with a surface, such as fingerprint and card attendance system.
Increased Productivity
Some
of the most time-consuming processes like waiting for others to clock in or out
are now automated, reducing downtime and maximizing productivity. Because
attendance is automated, HR department members are free to spend their time on
strategic initiatives rather than clock management and reconciliation of
attendance records.
Cost-Efficiency
Although
the initial cost might be considerable to install biometric attendance machines or facial recognition systems, the
return on the investment is worth much more than you will ever spend. These
systems save administrative overhead and reduce fraud, and they may integrate
with a payroll system, reducing manual errors and delays.
Conclusion
India has witnessed the rise of a new
wave of homegrown tech companies driving the development of cutting-edge facial
recognition and biometric attendance technologies. Startups in India have stepped up to build India-specific
workplace solutions; one such organization is Star Link India. As part of the
"Make-in-India" initiative, our innovations are making their way into
various industries, offering enhanced security, greater productivity, and
improved employee satisfaction.
