Does Being Overly Productive Absolve an Employee from Time Theft?
The negative effects of employee time theft on a company are well documented. Time theft not only drains profits but it can also lower employee morale, stifle accountability and damage loyalty. Despite these facts, employees who are overly productive at work may feel that they are entitled to occasionally sneak a couple of extra minutes here and there on breaks or during working hours because they more than make up for it through high productivity. Their philosophy about time theft is rooted in the misconception that performance above and beyond standard job responsibilities and exceeding established expectations is somehow entitlement to steal time.

However, this sort of thinking is the sole reason why many of the great biometric projects fail. Read the full post from here.
What is biometric verification system?
Every individual has one or more distinguishing biological traits. Evaluating these traits, an individual can be uniquely identified, and it is called biometric verification. To put it, biometric verification or authentication answers the question “who are you” in both physical or digital scenarios and the system used for it is called a biometric verification system.
An individual can have different unique identifiers such as fingerprints, finger vein, iris, retina, voice recognition, DNA, hand geometry, earlobe geometry, and signatures. These unique identifiers are impossible to duplicate, forge or steal. Which is why large corporations, small organizations, government or law enforcement agencies are quickly adopting biometric verification technology for safety and security. See the full post here.
