Attendance Integration
Meaning & Definition
Attendance Integration is the process by which your company’s attendance systems (biometric devices, mobile apps, etc.) will connect directly with your HRMS or payroll system. This means that any time there are changes to an employee’s attendance, they will automatically appear in your leave management and payroll systems. This also eliminates manual entry and potential human errors, thus ensuring you’re accurately processing wages.
Importance of attendance integration:
- Removes the requirement for manual input of attendance and reduces human error.
- Verifies correctly payroll processing for salary, overtime pay, and deductions; also calculates the pay week for the current pay period to avoid missing any hours.
- Allows for real-time viewing of employees’ current attendance status (such as vacation days or absences).
- Increases HR Efficiency through automation in Human Resources (HR) Workflows.
- Provides the means to ensure compliance and audit readiness with dependable attendance records.
Compliance & Policy Considerations:
There is no specific legal compliance that is associated with the term; however, attending integration supports the statutory compliance of:
Shops and establishments act (all states provide for a record of working hours and a record of attendance)
Payment of Wages Act (provides for the correct calculation of wages to be based on attendance).
Company Human Resources policies related to working hours, overtime, and leave.
