In the present world, the HR department is well-equipped to manage personnel even when more than 90% of workers do it from home. The modern HR platforms, which aim to automate every HR task from leave and attendance management to employee performance reviews and evaluations, have made this possible.

Since SHRMpro is a customisable HR management system software, each HR function has an own module. All sizes of businesses are able to pick and select the modules they need, then add more when further modules are required to suit the evolving company demands.

SHRMpro, a software for tracking attendance, is available for usage for both on premise and cloud. Employees may access data from anywhere thanks to the cloud service. This makes it possible for the attendance monitoring software to monitor the attendance of workers stationed all over the world.

The attendance monitoring software enables employees to apply for attendance regularisation / Work from home requests with only a few clicks and allows employees to view their total working hours on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis as well as for custom dates.

 

Tracking Employee Attendance Automatically with the SHRMpro App

A prompt notification/alert is sent each time someone enters or leaves the virtual fence you’ve set with geofencing, a relatively new approach that lets you create a virtual barrier over a specific geographic area. This technology has shown a lot of promise, and SHRMpro uses it to monitor the working hours and attendance of staff members who work remotely or perform office duties away from the office. This generally applies to employees who are away from the office for client meetings, market trips, seminars, business events, etc. During these trying times, employers should make sure that workers are safe while working from home or any other designated place by using attendance tracking software.

The employee’s reporting manager must define a geofence for each employee and give consent for automated attendance updates before the service can be used. The attendance monitoring software will automatically record the employees’ attendance as long as they stay in the specified region.
