Remote Staff - Attendance Monitoring Software

Remote Staff - Attendance Monitoring Software




Nowadays, there are companies whose employees report for work outside the usual place of business. Other than field workers, there are also home-based and freelancers who do not show up at the physical office to perform their job. What these people do is submit progress or work report as basis for their attendance. The problem with this scheme is how to ensure that the person would conscientiously abide with the work schedule or do the tasks as scheduled. This is where an attendance monitoring software comes very useful.

The similarity between a regular employee who shows up at the office during work days and a home-based or freelance employee is that they both have to check in for work. Checking in would serve as the basis for their salary. Since most workers are normally paid per hour, it is therefore important that there be a record of their attendance. For a field employee for example, he is usually required to notify the appropriate person that he is present where he is needed. Traditionally, this employee would be asked to check into the office first before going out to the field. This would be downright inconvenient and a waste of precious time.

With a software used as an attendance monitoring system, a field employee will just have to log in through the Internet or a remote access connection. He can access the system whether through the computer, laptop or mobile phone. Logging in and filling up the required data would be enough to prove of his attendance. Field employees are hired and perform their jobs with less supervision. The least that they are required to do is to comply with the company protocol in order to keep a reliable attendance record where their salary will also be based. This is a protocol that every freelancer should understand and comply with. A remote way of monitoring attendance is not only essential but also a convenient way of establishing an efficient working organization despite having employees outside the workplace.

Another notable feature of most attendance monitoring software today is security. The employer should not worry if an employee will trick the system. Most software now employs biometric input. Only an authorized personnel has to edit or make certain changes in the data. This in itself should have an accompanying incident report to explain whatever was changed or edited. Request for a correction or error must go through a process to maintain the system's security and authenticity of data.
