Access control and time attendance systems are technologies used by organizations or facilities to manage and monitor the entry, exit, and presence of individuals within a specified area, such as a building or office space.

Access Control: This system regulates who can enter or exit a particular physical location or use resources within that location. It is an advanced biometric system that requires fingerprint, facial or card recognition for access. Access control systems often use keycards, PIN codes, biometrics, or even mobile credentials to grant or deny access to individuals based on their authorization level.

Time Attendance: Time attendance systems track when employees arrive at and leave work. These systems help organizations manage attendance, work hours, and payroll. They can use various methods like biometrics, swipe cards, or PIN codes to record employees’ entry and exit times.

Integration of access control with time attendance systems can optimize security and streamline administrative tasks by using a unified system for managing both aspects effectively.
