Biometric Time Clocks & Clocking in Systems
Improve Punctuality with Bodet's Fingerprint Biometric System and Handscan Scanners
Reliable Biometric Clocking In
Biometric clocking is the most reliable method to collect employees working hours, as it rules out the possibility of buddy punching. The key advantages of Bodet's Biometric Clocking In System / Fingerprint Reader are:
- Removing the need and expense of issuing clocking in cards or fobs to be used with your Time and Attendance Management system.
- Removing the possibility of employees clocking in for their colleagues.
- No more loss or forgetting of badges preventing people from clocking in.
Bodet provides two kinds of biometric clocking in Time and Attendance Systems: finger scanner attendance and handscan. If you are interested in using a Biometric Attendance System with your Time and Attendance Software, please contact us to arrange a free demonstration.

Bodet's Biometric Clocking In Terminals Range
Fingerprint Reader
Fingerprint Scanner Biometric Clocking In Systems are used to provide a real time recording of an impression of a fingerprint pattern.
The user puts his finger on the fingerprint scanner terminal, and a sensor captures the fingerprint. This is then compared against a stored profile, and the information is sent to the Time and Attendance Software immediately.
Bodet's solution does not store biometric fingerprints. This approach ensures GDPR compliance.

Key Functions of the Kelio Visio Clocking In Fingerprint Reader
- Interrogation of results.
- Business leave.
- Overtime on request (OTA).
- Door opening.
- Breaks (inside the premises).
- Flexi-time and overtime.
- Change of daily schedule.
- Clocking without badge.
- Creation of absence files.
- Clocking an activity or a cost centre.

Facial Recognition Clocking In Systems
RAPID AND ACCURATE CONTACTLESS BIOMETRIC SCANNING
The FaceStation 2 Smart Face Recognition Terminal works in unison with Bodet's Kelio Vision X7 to provide quick and accurate contactless biometric scanning.
The modern and ergonomically designed terminal has a wide scanning angle, works in all indoor lighting conditions, and features an intuitive graphical user interface.
Facial recognition clocking in offers an alternative to fingerprint scanning for organisations where dirty environments might be an issue.

How does a fingerprint clocking system work?
A fingerprint clocking-in system, also referred to as a biometric time and attendance system, employs fingerprint recognition technology to monitor and document employees' attendance and working hours. The system functions through the following procedures:
Employee Registration: Each employee is entered into the system by providing their basic details and capturing their fingerprint data. During registration, a fingerprint reader or sensor is used to scan the employee's fingerprint. The system analyses and converts the fingerprint image into a unique biometric template, which serves as a digital representation (key) of the fingerprint.
Clocking In/Out - Fingerprint Verification: When an employee clocks in or out, they place their finger on the fingerprint reader on the clocking terminal. In the event of a match the clocking time is recorded in real-time.
Attendance Recording: The time and date of the clocking event, along with the employee's identity are recorded when the employee clocks in or out.
Access Control: In addition to tracking time and attendance, fingerprint clocking can be used with Kelio’s access control systems. If an employee's fingerprint matches, access to secure areas or facilities can be granted. This can also be done according to their working schedule.
Attendance Reports: The system generates comprehensive reports based on the recorded attendance data for each employee. These reports can include information such as total hours worked, late arrivals, early departures, and absences. Managers can utilise these reports for payroll processing, monitoring attendance patterns, and identifying any attendance-related issues
Security and Privacy: Kelio’s fingerprint clocking-in systems employ advanced encryption. By using fingerprint recognition technology, our fingerprint clocking-in system provides a dependable and efficient means of tracking employee attendance while minimising the risk of fraudulent activities such as “buddy punching”, where one employee clocks in or out on behalf of another.
