What is the advantage of Digital vs Analog Weighing Scales?


Analog Scales

Difficult to read → These scales usually depict weight by a small pointer. With the large display of numbers and dashes the pointer can easily be lost among all the distractions and deciphering the exact weight it is yielding can be very difficult.

Style → Analog scales are more “old school” they look dated and are usually big and bulky.

Easy to calibrate → Calibration on these scales is fairly simple. Most can usually be adjusted with a small turn knob on the bottom side of the scale.

Digital Scales:

Easy to read → Unlike analog scales, the digital display delivers your weight clearly. Most digital scales also come with a black-lit led screen to make it even easier to read your weight.

Precision → Digital scales typically have better precision as they can measure up to the decimal in increments.

Style → Most of the digital scales available have sleek designs. They are aesthetically pleasing and don’t need to be hidden away.

Calibration → When it comes to calibration, the analog scale may have the digital beat because not all digital scales are easily adjusted.

Regardless of the scale you choose, look for one that is accurate, precise, durable, and affordable!

Accuracy is obviously most important. No one wants a scale that lies to them…well okay, I wouldn’t mind if mine lied by 5 pounds ;)

A precise scale is one that is consistent be sure it can collect a certain weight repeatedly without varying.

You really want to make sure the scale you choose is durable. It may get bumped or moved around and you’ll be standing on and off of it over and over. Not only do you want your scale to be physically durable, you want it to be durable on the inside as well —the computer of the scale. No one wants a bathroom scale that deteriorates from moisture.

I really want you to know that you do not have to shell out a fortune on your bathroom scale. There are plenty of designs that work just as well as high end ones…if not the same.

How do Biometric Time and Attendance Systems Work

How do Biometric Time and Attendance Systems Work
View Full Size

Biometric time and attendance systems have become popular in the business world today when it comes to tracking employees and their attendance. Biometric systems are easy to use, easy to install and track data regarding employees for management to analyze.

The biggest advantage of these systems is that they prevent employees from clocking in for one another. Previous methods included a timeclock, a sign-in sheet and swiping an ID card. These systems create more of an honor system for employees to follow, reducing employee time theft.

How Biometric Systems Work

Biometric time and attendance systems use the fingerprints of employees to verify who is actually clocking in and clocking out of work each day. The system scans the finger of the employee, coordinates are determined and then the system maps the endpoints and intersections of the fingerprint.

These are then referenced against what is in the system from the employee. If an employee has not been entered into the system, he or she will not be able to use the biometric system to clock in and out of work each day.

Biometric Systems are Safe

Many people worry that biometric systems can be hacked or logged into by outside entities, such as law enforcement agencies. This is not the case. A biometric absence tracker is completely safe and secure. It can only be used, and data accessed, by the company that uses the system. These systems can typically only be used for tracking time and attendance and providing access to employees to certain areas of the building.

There is no personal information used in the biometric system except for the employee’s fingerprint and his or her employee ID number. The employee’s social security number and other personal information, such as birthdate, are not used by the biometric system. This is what makes the system so secure. Even if it is hacked, which is highly unlikely, there is no personal information worth stealing.

Fingerprints are Deleted from the System

To make a biometric system even more secure, the system deletes fingerprints from the system. When a new employee is entered into the system, the software scans the fingerprint to create a group of coordinates. The fingerprint itself is then deleted to protect the security and identity of the employee. The next time the employee uses the touchscreen on the biometric system to clock in or out, the coordinates on file are matched with the fingerprint on the screen to verify the employee’s identity.

Restrict Employee and Non-employee Access

Another major benefit of using time & attendance systems is that they restrict employee and non-employee access to certain areas of your organization. For example, if a group of employees are not supposed to access a certain area of your building, their fingerprints will be flagged in the system so they cannot enter.

This makes the building more secure from intruders or visitors who simply want to wander around the campus. They will not be able to access the restricted areas even if they attempt to use their fingerprint to gain access. Management will be able to assign and revoke access to individual employees using the software, much like using a keycard or keyfob.

Two Technology Types Used

Biometric absence management software uses two types of technology; image-based and capacitive. Image-based technology is when the software takes a picture of the fingerprint using a scanner to create the biometric template for each employee. Capacitive technology is when the software uses electronic pulses on a touchscreen to feel the ridges on the fingerprints to make the template of endpoints and merge points.

Mobile Capabilities

Biometric systems have mobile capabilities, which means employees who are out of the office can still clock in and out while on the road. This is perfect for companies where employees are constantly in company vehicles making deliveries or house calls for repairs. You will be able to track their time on the job and make sure the employees are not abusing the timeclock since they are away from management’s eyes.

Recap of Biometric System Benefits

We have put together a list of some of the best benefits of using biometric systems. These benefits include the following:

  • Easy to use
     
  • Fast way to clock in
     
  • Stronger security measure
     
  • Prevents theft of time
     
  • Accurate detail recording
     
  • User friendly for all employees
     
  • Easily integrated into payroll, accounting and billing systems
     
  • Saves time when clocking time
     
  • Saves money by accurately tracking time
     
  • Prevents buddy punching, early punching or late punching by employees
     
  • PTO Tracking Software for compliance

When it comes to tracking paid time off, biometric systems are perfect for the job. PTO tracking software that uses biometric tracking makes it easier to track when employees are due paid time off and how many more hours the employee has to work before earning PTO.

Biometric time and attendance systems are easy to use, easy to install, user friendly and help companies save money. They do not pose a security threat to employees’ personal data, while ensuring there is no abuse of company time.

The Truth About Biometrics Time recorder

Privacy

First, the author hinted biometrics could be used to “spy” on employees: to access restricted databases, to conduct surveillance of employees during their off hours, even to steal identities — all sorts of “Big Brother” concerns. Sounds scary, right?

 

The Truth: According to Michael Trader, president of M2Sys, as quoted in an article on Workforce.com, “Invasion of privacy is the biggest obstacle employers face. But it’s important to note that no image is ever stored. It’s just an encrypted binary stream.”

Here’s what happens: when an employee is first enrolled in a biometric time and attendance system, the software records a template of the employee’s face, hand or fingerprint and associates that template with the employee’s ID number. This template is simply a numeric representation of the relationship between various points in the scan, not an actual image.

In other words, the system doesn’t store actual fingerprints or faces, only a string of numbers to represent those biometric identifiers. Further, the templates used for biometric verification are stored in encrypted format and cannot be used to re-create anyone’s fingerprint or image. The templates used for biometric time and attendance are not usable for other purposes.

Expense

Second, the author tried to claim biometrics are “too costly” to be used for something as straightforward as time recording.

The Truth: The true ROI of a system is not measured merely by adding up the out-of-pocket costs. We also have to consider the “opportunity costs” — that is, how much would we have spent on the alternatives if we didn’timplement the current system? In other words, how much expense have we avoided by implementing the new system?

According to an article on Workforce.com:

A 2009 study conducted by Harris Interactive Inc. showed that 21 percent of hourly employees admit to stealing company time. While only 5 percent participated in buddy punching, 69 percent said they punch in and out earlier or later than scheduled, 22 percent put additional time on their time sheet, and 14 percent didn’t punch out for unpaid lunches or breaks.

In a 2008 study conducted by Nucleus Research, 19% of employees surveyed admitted to buddy-punching. In another study, 60% of employers said they know their employees aren’t accurately recording their time or they don’t know if the time recorded is accurate.

As the old saying goes, “Time is money.” A biometric system ensures employees are physically present when they clock in and out. And that increased accuracy can save your organization significant money. In fact, according to Grant Kaufman, Director of Operations at Yarco Co., his firm was able to cut their payroll processing time by 90% after implementing a biometric time recording system.

Reliability

Finally, the author claimed biometric technology is “fairly recent” and “may fall short” in reliability when compared with other “proven technologies.”

The Truth: Biometric technology has been around for longer than many people may realize. For instance, the first hand scanners came to use in the 1970s — over 35 years ago. Biometrics have been used in many applications, in many environments, for many years and have proven themselves to be both reliable and easy to use.

Our software offers sensitivity settings to help you fine-tune your scanner to help prevent false-positives or false-negatives, further increasing reliability.

As to the terminals themselves, the scanner plates — both the glass plate on the fingerprint scanner and the hand plate on the HandPunch — are durable and easy to clean. HandPunch scanners are also treated with BioCote anti-microbial coating for added peace of mind. With our new FaceVerify terminal, employees don’t even have to touch the device — they simply look at the screen — so there is little to no physical wear-and-tear on the scanner at all.

Whether you are concerned about buddy-punching or the accuracy of your employees’ reported time, or you simply want to save money on payroll processing, a biometric system is a proven and reliable choice.

Is a Biometric System Right for You?

I can only conclude either the author of the article had an agenda to push or had little experience with biometric time tracking. Biometric time and attendance can not be used to facilitate the sort of Orwellian invasions of privacy he envisions. Biometric technology is a cost-effective means of preventing costly buddy punching. And both the hardware and software are proven, reliable and accurate.

Of course, not every type of biometric device is suitable for every workplace. Some environments are simply too harsh for any electronic device. But for many organizations, biometric time and attendance can be an excellent choice.

 

Biometrics time attendance: benefits for your business

Companies that have problems with employee time attendance should employ biometrics time attendance software

Biometrics have quickly become a popular way to track time attendance for companies across the world.The technology adds security to the time tracking software and prevents employees from stealing company time, by punching fellow employees in or out (buddy punching), for example.

This type of time and attendance systems use the biometrics of each employee in order to clock in and out of the system during the day. Reports can then be generated for each employee and sent to payroll with ease.


ADVANTAGES FOR USING BIOMETRIC MACHINE:

Eliminates time theft

Companies have had trouble with time theft in the past and will likely have the same problems in the future if nothing is done. 
But how were employees stealing company time? They might not have logged their breaks properly, or wrote down that they left work 15 minutes after they really left. Employees might also have purposefully clocked in and out of work one minute before and one minute after their shift to gain time paid in each payroll period. All of this can be eliminated with a biometric attendance system. When companies eliminate time theft, they save money and make it a better place to work.

Biometrics prevent buddy punching

The beauty of biometrics is that it prevents all ‘buddy punching’. ‘Buddy punching’ used to be a major problem with companies when attendance was kept using time sheets or passwords to log into an online time clock. Since the employee needs to use his or her fingerprint to clock in and out of the system, no one else in the office can do so for them when they are not present. This prevents time theft and keeps everyone honest.

Employee accountability is improved

Employee accountability can be improved by using time and attendance software that uses biometrics. These systems create reports for every employee in the system that show when he or she worked, how long they worked, the breaks they took and much more. This means that any biometric-based report will show management if employees are taking too long on their breaks, are not reporting to work, are clocking in too early or too late and if they are taking too many breaks during the day.This will force employees to hold themselves more accountable at the office, increasing their productivity.

Ease of use

Another benefits of biometrics
 PTO tracking software is that it is incredibly easy to install and use. No matter how simple a previous system was, the software will not confuse employees in the least bit. All they need to do is scan their fingerprint on the device at the office and it will be entered into the system with their name and other information. It will take all of a 30 minute meeting with employees to explain the new system and show them how it works. It is also worth noting that the system is secure and personal data can’t be compromised.

Improved compliance

A biometrics attendance system can also help your company improve its compliance with employment laws. Should the Department of Labor audit your business, a system using biometrics will make it easier to pull records of individual employees or a group of employees so that a decision can be made as soon as possible. Proof of attendance is very important, which is why a biometrics system can make all the difference when dealing with an audit by the Department of Labor. Biometrics time attendance systems include PTO tracking software, FMLA tracking software and absence tracker software. Companies dealing with attendance issues should consider switching to biometrics to quell those problems immediately.

Advantages and Application Scenarios
 

Many companies and corporations seek after fingerprint technology in time attendance these days because the system has been proven to provide better employee management and control. “You are you” concept that only biometrics can offer has been able to solve many problems arising from traditional time clock such as punch card system or even electronic card system i.e proximity and smart card, such as buddy punching, lost of cards, inaccurate reporting, etc.
 

Fingerprint Comparative Advantage: Fingerprint VS Punch Card System

Reduce Cost, Improve Efficiency, Increase Quality

 
Advantange
Fingerprint
Punch Card System
  • Operation Convenience
The use of fingerprint is simple, nobody forgets to bring his fingerprint to work.
 
Verification takes a second and it speeds up.
Staff have to carry card to record attendance or to gain access.
 
Staff need to
  • Better Discipline Control
There is no way to cheat time with “you are you” concept. “Buddy punching” where a colleague could punch time for other staff is always an option.
  • Setup cost
Time Attendance:
Terminal cost, software included plus software training (if required)

 

Access Control:
Terminal Cost + Installation Cost + Training and Commissioning

Terminal Cost + Card Cost (recurring monthly) + Installation Cost + Training and Commissioning Cost + Maintenance Cost
  • Variable Operating Cost
Prism is wear and tear part, which needs to be cleaned to maintain a longer lifespan. Changing of prism is very economical. Punch card system: Card needs to be replenished every month, ink ribbons to be changed, clock tuning and mechanical parts worn off.
  • Labor Operating Cost
Employee data is keyed into the system once, automatic duty roster management, report preparations are generated by the system, audit trail is available and it reduces human error in calculation and reporting. Punch card: Data entry and calculation are manually done, prone to human error. Duty Roster management and reports are manually prepared, posing inaccuracy risk. Genuine attendance data is disputable because cards can be exchanged between employees.
  • Software Support
Free software support and software upgrades. Manual calculation and self generated reports.
  • Deployment Flexibility
Light weighted terminal with USB interface available is suitable for any place with or without network availability.

DIY setup materials are available as standard package.

Single system manages multiple terminals and different models.

Extra space is required for keeping the punch cards.

Heavy manual workload is proportional to the number of punch card machines installed and cards used.

  • Data Management
Data needs to be enrolled and inputted once into the system and transferable to other terminals and computers over network.

Automatic and scheduled data download is available.

Simple full system data backup and restore function is provided.Centralized data management
Labor intensive where data has to be inputted by administration personnel at the end of the month for attendance records and salary calculations.

Keeping of employee’s used cards require space and management.

  • Management Monitoring
Monitoring can be done over TCP/IP from a remote site for example from headquarters by instant data download. When data is manually inputted at month end, even though monitoring is possible, the data is scattered and not centralized.
  • System Extension
Different models can work under the same software management

Access control terminals can be added to the current system without disrupting any software or hardware operation

Huge user database is made possible via Fingerprint
Not possible due to system design limitation and no connectivity.
  • Data preparation for 3rd party system
     e.g. payroll
Attendance data can be exported based on user self-definable table format to MS Excel, ASCII and ODBC.

 

Data is manually prepared therefore slow, inaccurate and tedious.
