How it works
- Admin defines geo-fences for each site (centre point and radius).
- Employee opens the app and taps check-in.
- The app captures the device location.
- The server verifies the location is within an assigned geo-fence.
- Attendance is recorded; the manager dashboard updates.
Verification options
- Geo-fence radius per site
- Mock-location detection
- Device binding
- Optional selfie verification
- Offline capture with later sync
Privacy by design
Collect location only at check-in and check-out, explain the policy clearly, and restrict who can view location data.
Connecting to payroll
Verified attendance feeds leave and payroll calculations, eliminating manual reconciliation. See the field workforce reference implementation and FairBazaar HRMS.
Conclusion
Location-based attendance brings trust to distributed teams without paper.
