How MYHR Unified Attendance for Office Teams and Field Inspectors Across India

A pan-India certification and inspection organization combined existing ESSL biometrics with mobile, selfie, GPS and geo-fenced attendance—bringing every attendance mode into one controlled platform.

The challenge

Office biometrics could not account for a mobile field workforce

Office employees used ESSL biometric machines, but inspectors and field officers travelled directly to customer locations for inspections, audits and certification work.

The requirement: one attendance platform for both office-based and field-based employees, without discarding the organization’s existing biometric infrastructure.
  • Inspectors did not regularly visit offices to mark biometric attendance
  • Field attendance required manual regularization
  • HR had limited visibility into employees’ actual work locations
  • Managers depended on manual attendance confirmations
  • Attendance from offices across India required time-consuming consolidation
  • Each new office created a need for more biometric hardware and infrastructure
The MYHR solution

One integrated platform for every attendance mode

MYHR automatically consolidates attendance captured through existing office devices and flexible mobile methods, creating a single attendance source for HR and payroll.

ESSL biometric integration

Attendance punches from existing devices are captured and uploaded automatically.

Mobile attendance

Field employees mark attendance directly from customer, inspection or project locations.

Selfie verification

A photo can be captured with the transaction to support employee identity verification.

GPS location capture

MYHR records the date, time and coordinates of each mobile attendance transaction.

Geo-fencing

Attendance can be limited to approved offices, sites or other defined geographical areas.

Manager approval

Reporting Managers review attendance details and validate them against assignments.

Field attendance workflow

Attendance captured at the point of work—and verified by the right manager

The workflow records the transaction automatically and gives the Reporting Manager the information needed for operational approval.

01

Mark

The employee records attendance on mobile or through the selfie facility.

02

Time

The transaction date and actual attendance time are captured.

03

Locate

GPS coordinates and the attendance location are recorded.

04

Verify

The Reporting Manager reviews location and attendance details.

05

Approve

Validated attendance becomes centrally available to HR and payroll.

Mobile attendance with geo-fencing

Attendance control without installing new hardware

Approved geographical zones can be defined for locations where employees are permitted to mark attendance. New or temporary offices can use mobile attendance instead of immediately purchasing, installing and maintaining biometric devices.

Can MYHR integrate with existing ESSL biometric devices?
Yes. MYHR can automatically capture and consolidate attendance punches from existing ESSL biometric devices, so the organization can retain its current office infrastructure.
What is geo-fenced mobile attendance?
Geo-fenced attendance allows an organization to define approved geographical areas. Employees can be permitted to mark mobile attendance only while they are within those areas.
What information is captured with mobile attendance?
The transaction can capture employee identity, attendance date and time, GPS coordinates, the location from which attendance was marked, and selfie or photo verification where applicable.
Can mobile attendance reduce the need for biometric devices?
Yes. New offices, temporary sites and other approved locations can use mobile attendance with geo-fencing instead of immediately purchasing and maintaining biometric hardware.
How is field attendance verified?
