Card-based access control solutions are widely prevalent globally. These systems grant access only when users swipe their cards through a reader; typically, these cards feature a magnetic strip on the back containing essential information such as passwords and identification. The accompanying software that oversees the system provides integrators and managers with the ability to monitor specific times at which employees accessed, offering valuable tracking capabilities.

The time and attendance system simplifies the process of recording daily employee attendance and plays a significant role in efficiently calculating monthly overtime and salaries.
