Designing An Attendance System Model for Work From Home (WFH) Employees Based on User-Centered

Attendance system has evolved along with the industrial revolution that now has reached a new era. Furthermore, nowadays with the struck of COVID-19, the government issued a prohibition policy towards companies to urge their employees to work from home (WFH). Several issues have come across the Human Resources Development (HRD) manager regarding this policy. Employees’ taking vacation when they are obliged to work from home and employees’ faking their attendance are two of many problems regarding this policy. Hence, this study aims to design a relevant attendance system model that will overcome these problems with the integration of face recognition and geolocation through mobile platform. The study built the proposed attendance system with the approach of User-Centered Design (UCD) methodology. The findings within the study shows that above 80% of participants are satisfied with the proposed model and are ready to implement the designed system in their organizations respectively.
