Time and attendance with a difference

SMART Mining Security Solutions 2023 Access Control & Identity Management

The Platinum Mobile app allows employers to track employees work hours, location, leave and more, when employees do not have access to the office clocking terminal, are onsite or out in the field visiting clients.

All you need is one mobile phone to clock a single or multiple employees with facial recognition and liveliness detection, using the front or back camera of the mobile phone. Facial matching and liveliness algorithm has matches of up to 99% and can be set by the super user.

With Platinum Mobile the GPS feature allows you to track each employee’s exact location with each clocking, and it automatically logs all tracked time. Data is captured and sent to the Vision Enterprise Platinum cloud-based software where you can monitor each employee, giving you access to customisable reports and tools to manage your employees’ time and location worked.

Site clocking

Working outside the office, at a client’s premises, or at a construction site? Use a variety of variables such as GPS location, time stamps, virtual sites and virtual site selection together with the accuracy brought by Uniclox mobile facial recognition to ensure you have accurate site hour billing and wage data. You can allocate a certain amount of time allowed at a certain site and allocate certain employees to certain site – using only one mobile phone. Not clocking where they should? No problem, receive an alert when an employee clocks outside of these parameters.

HK Enrol

New employee? Enrol one or multiple new employees using your mobile phone camera and restrict their access to certain areas in the building. Replace and update photos of current employees with Platinum Mobile. Templates are then automatically sent to the Vision Enterprise Platinum software and all linked clocking terminals.

Visitors

The same applies here as with HK Enrol. Using your mobile phone camera, enrol a visitor, allow access to certain areas of the building and provide temporary access. Access control in the palm of your hands. As soon as the allowed time expires, access is revoked. No more messy books in your reception with false information.

Employee Self Service (ESS)

Employees can now easily apply and track leave from their mobile device. Track your leave status, leave balance, and upload any supporting documents. ESS gives you complete control over your leave system.

Job costing

Employers are able to keep track of the amount of hours an employee spent on a specific project or task at a work centre. Tracking productive and non-productive time, such as time wasted during load shedding, can increase workload to employees and increase overall productivity, effectively manage your team, time and money.

Offline? No problem. Data is saved to the mobile device and updates to the Vision Enterprise Platinum software once connection is restored, so you can monitor your team whether on the road or at the office. When ready for payroll, directly export the employee timesheet to your preferred payroll software.

Platinum Mobile is available to download on the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store.
