Mitrefinch adds Facial Recognition to its Time and Attendance Solutions
NEWTON, MA - Jul 30, 2020 - Mitrefinch delivers biometric and cloud based time and attendance solutions for midsize and large organizations including hospitals, medical facilities and senior care centers across North and South America.
Additionally to its biometric fingerprint scanners and proximity readers, Mitrefinch introduces Facial Recognition system with an optional Thermal Screening.
To help medical staff provide safe patient care and monitor work schedules and flexible shifts of nurses and other technicians its important to have a customizable system to reduce administrative and labor cost and accommodate constantly changing work rules and patterns. More than ever before supervisors need to track who is working at which location, where there is insufficient staff and approve shifts online.
Nowadays when medical / healthcare facilities, assisted living, senior / disability care centers present the most stressful environment where everyone needs to pay close attention to details and safety of both personnel and patients is the highest priority, its essential to use contactless time and attendance systems to reduce virus spread and avoid contamination.
Healthcare facilities can choose any combination of the systems for touch-free time tracking solution which makes it easy for management to determine needs in real time and to make sure that the correctly skilled staff is always available. This way customer care service can improve dramatically.
Currently fingerprints or biological scanners can be replaced or retrofitted with hands-free proximity card readers, facial recognition systems or web based, mobile or text clock-in software solutions. They are easy to install and use and no additional hardware required. .
As an option, you can add Fever Screening feature that works in combination with a Facial Recognition system. It will measure the temperature of every single person entering the building and will automatically capture the time of entry. Based on real time data it'll be possible to create shifts and schedules and manage personnel in the most efficient way to save time for more important operations.
Top Benefits of Contactless Time and Attendance Systems
Facial recognition: Easy to install and use, workers are required to stand in front of the small device that has a size of a smartphone. Facial recognition software scans the face and sends data into Time and Attendance system directly. Optionally, a Thermal Fever Screening can be used to measure the temperature. Conveniently, this type of device will recognize the face with a mask worn.
· Proximity Card: proximity cards or swipe cards rely on RFID technology (Radio Frequency Identification) to track time and attendance safely and accurately. Each employee gets a personal card for use with the existing biometric clock system.
Mobile phones: cloud-based time and attendance software allows workers to clock in and out online via mobile devices. Thus, these systems allow employees to use their smart phones to clock in and out, avoiding the need for a time clock. Another alternative way is to use SMS clock in system. This type of mobile clocking is the best choice for remote employees in multiple locations or buildings or for the workers in the field. Combined with scheduling tools that show real time staff availability will result in a cost-effective remote workforce management.
