Biometric time and attendance system firm Bodet have introduced a new interactive solution for time and attendance management that the firm says takes a completely new approach to time management.The new Kelio system is fronted by an award winning interactive communication terminal, the Kelio Visio X7, which is available with a card reader, a biometric fingerprint sensor or both.When staff clock in or out, the terminal identifies them and time stamps the record which is then stored on the master database in real time. The biometric option also overcomes any risk of 'buddy punching'.The touch-sensitive screen presents intuitive display panel which allows staff to interact with and interrogate the company's back office.This screen appears when clocking in or out but can also be accessed at any other time during the shift. All the user information can be accessed quickly by the terminal using a browser which avoids the need for plug-ins.The system has been launched after five years of R & D and around £5M investment.In a statement, Bodet noted that “It's the software behind the state-of-the-art terminal which makes the new Kelio system so different from the competition. Firstly it provides real time attendance data, and management can see at a glance any staff absences or lateness directly from their PC screen. It also creates customised staff attendance reports for HR, management and payroll. “But the real advance is that the Kelio system enables two-way dialogue between the employee and management. Employees can use the Kelio system to access a range of information from personal messages, reviewing their attendance record and remaining holiday allocation. They can also use the terminal to request time off or book future holidays”.
