Attendance for security services
Attendance and shift coverage for every security post.
Plan round-the-clock coverage, record attendance at fixed or remote posts, and see missing handovers before they become a payroll correction at the end of the month.

Built around posts, handovers and continuous coverage.
Security operations need to know that the next person actually arrived, not only that a schedule was published. Attendance compares the live record with the expected post coverage.
- 01
Schedule by post and qualification
Assign guards to the locations and shifts they are allowed and available to cover.
- 02
See a missing handover early
A scheduled guard who has not arrived appears as an exception while the shift can still be covered.
- 03
Handle night work correctly
A shift crossing midnight remains one period, with rest and overtime rules applied consistently.
- 04
Keep attendance and access distinct
A terminal can support door access and attendance while the organisation controls the policy for each use.
From post allocation to approved guard hours.
Coverage changes remain visible from the schedule through to the final approval.
- 01
Publish the post schedule
Allocate locations, start times and responsibilities for every shift.
- 02
Fill an uncovered shift
Use availability, rest time and overtime information to identify suitable replacements.
- 03
Confirm the handover
Terminal or mobile attendance shows who arrived at the post and when.
- 04
Review before payroll
Missing records, unusually long shifts and manual corrections are checked before approval.
At a glance
Fixed terminals for permanent posts, mobile for remote coverage.
Use a terminal where the location has a staff or controlled entrance. For remote posts, approved smartphone attendance can apply a location rule and work without signal.

QR, RFID or PIN
Fast attendance at a fixed security post or control room.

Suitable for remote posts, patrol starts and locations without installed hardware.

Access control
Compatible terminals can also control authorised entry where the site requires it.
Questions from this industry
- Can the system cover many client locations?
- Yes. Posts remain separated by client and location while supervisors can see the group of sites for which they are responsible.
- How does it handle shifts that cross midnight?
- The full shift stays together on the working day it started, rather than being split into two unrelated half shifts.
- Can guards clock in where there is no installed terminal?
- Yes. Approved mobile attendance can be used at remote posts, with location checks and offline storage when connectivity is unavailable.
