Abstract

Strong inclinations towards controlling and monitoring employees are becoming a more prevalent feature of working life. The success of any organization is directly proportional to the contributions of the workers either from executive level or operational level. The objective of managing workers attendance in working place is to improve profits and to minimize costs. Biometric authentication is an exciting technical improvement in recent times over other methods of human. A secure Employees’ Attendance Management framework (Em-pAMS) with remote monitoring that curtails the influx of ghost workers in public civil service integrated with a web-based, real-time monitoring tool that allows people in management positions to see when their employees check in and out, for informed decision-making during performance appraisal that avoids buddy-punching is presented. One major strength of the proposed system is that it provides a data security structure for ensuring the security of biometric templates (the fingerprints acquired from workers during the enrolment phase.
