For every organization, the attendance process is one of the important aspects to consider employee performance. Yet it is something that should be done swiftly and efficiently, without giving any effort into it. Manual attendance system could be time-consuming and error-prone, and other new system developed could prove to be complex and costly. Hence, the proposed system called as “Cloud-Based Employee Attendance Management System using NFC and Face Recognition” provides several important operations such as captured attendance records using NFC, automatic time calculation, leave and overtime checking, working hour’s evaluation, real-time updated information access, and generating reports. In order to add on to the security of genuine attendance tracking, facial recognition mechanism is embedded, so the system could not be fooled. An online portal is developed for managers to keep track of this process and manage employee attendance easily. The system can be used by any companies from small to medium size to implement cheap and efficient attendance tracking mechanism.
