UPCOS mandates the use of Biometric Attendance Systems (BAS), including fingerprint and facial recognition technology, to record real-time clock-ins and clock-outs.
For field workers or remote employees, attendance is tracked via mobile apps that use GPS verification and selfie-based authentication to ensure location-based accuracy.
The automated system is integrated with the payroll module. Salaries, EPF and ESI contributions are calculated directly from attendance records.
Leave balances are automatically updated according to organizational leave policies and employee eligibility.
Employees can apply online while managers review, approve or reject requests through a digital workflow.
Approved leave is automatically synchronized with attendance records and payroll calculations.
