![]() The scanner connects via USB, which allows it to be up to 54 feet from the computer to which it is attached. It does not require a dedicated computer, which allows normal use of the machine without being bogged down with awareness of the software running in the background. The scanner itself only requires a connection to the internet from any computer to become that location’s clock-in clock. The clocking in clock is very easy to use and easy to place as its small and compact. An employee can clock in at one site, and clock out at another, all the while the times are being accurately recorded. With MinuteHound, an employee can punch in as many times per day as needed, while also punching in and out from any location. Many city and state employees have time and attendance demands such as multiple punches per day, or working from separate locations. MinuteHound’s time and attendance software makes it easy to keep track of payroll without any guess work or time theft, and everything is designed to be simple, both to set up and to use. MinuteHound is a modern, complete payroll time clock replacement system, utilizing biometric fingerprint technology, which allows employees to clock in and out with a simple finger press.

Posted in Clocking In Systems, Time Attendance News The Union should be ashamed of themselves. The Union knows the introduction of a fingerprint clocking on system makes sense, they just want to feel needed by their members and are blatantly playing the “your rights are being infringed card, were here to protect you against this sort of thing”. The Union is justifying its own existence by stirring up trouble on a topic that is almost guaranteed to get a an overexcited overreaction when presented as an infringement of your human rights. We explained to Stephen that it was just another example of Unionised interference and over reaction to a harmless use of biometric technology to ensure “fair play” to both sides, the employee and the employer. Summary: Journalist Stephen Chittenden from BBC Radio Five Live called us and asked for our comment on the refusal by London Underground cleaning staff to use the biometric fingerprint clocking in system which was introduced by their Danish employer, who simply wanted to ensure they were not overpaying people for the hours claimed each payday. “We don’t think this is draconian or an infringement of civil liberties it’s about making sure we have the right people – verified and trained – in the right place at the right time.” The technology infringed their rights, the union added. The cleaners – who are employed by Danish firm ISS UK – will continue to sign in manually and by phone. “We believe this technology infringes on staff civil liberties and the overwhelming vote in favour of action shows our members’ strength of feeling on this issue,” said Bob Crow, RMT’s general secretary. But Adam Wurf, communications director for ISS UK told the BBC: “With this technology we will be able to guarantee that the member of staff is who they say they are. The previous clocking-on method involved an automated phone line and a sheet of paper.īy the BBC 17th September 2013 – On Thursday, hundreds of workers plan to refuse to cooperate with the clocking-in system after 98% of those who voted in a ballot opted for the action, said the RMT union. RMT also suggested the fingerprint-based sign-in system infringed the cleaners’ “dignity”. The union said it represented between 200 and 300 cleaners, and said that ISS had “bulldozed” the biometric system into use, against the wishes of its staff. When The Register contacted the RMT, a spokesperson told us staff felt “brutalised” by the system, which made them feel like “slabs of meat”. The union is vague on exactly why biometric fingerprinting is a bad idea. “Strong union organisation in the workplace is the key to preventing this unacceptable method of booking on and RMT will continue to build our ‘Thumbs Down to Fingerprinting’ campaign.” We believe this technology infringes on staff civil liberties and the overwhelming vote in favour of action shows our members’ strength of feeling on this issue. According to the RMT union, 98 per cent of the 103 staffers who responded to the ballot voted in favour of the plans, which stopped short of calling for a full-on strike.īob Crow, RMT general secretary, said: “Our tube cleaning members have been urged to stand firm and follow the call by the union to take industrial action short of a strike by refusing to use any biometric/fingerprint technology to book on for duty. ![]()
