Attendance

Who is in, who is late, and what it costs, as it happens.

Clock-ins arrive from biometric devices and the mobile app, with the site checked by geofence. Lateness, overtime and absence are worked out against each person's shift and flow straight into payroll.

Clock-in that proves where people are.

The mobile app only accepts a clock-in inside the geofence you draw around each site, from a registered phone, with a selfie. Biometric devices at the gate feed the same record.

  • Fingerprint and face devices, most brands
  • Geofence radius per site
  • Attempts outside the fence logged, not accepted

Hours that go straight into payroll.

Each person's month is reconciled against their shift: worked days, overtime at the right rate, lateness under your policy, unpaid absence. Lock the period and the figures are already in the run.

  • Overtime at 1.25× and 1.5× for night work
  • Grace periods and deductions you define
  • Locked periods cannot drift after pay day

And the rest of the working day.

Everything else attendance touches, handled in the same place.

  • Missed punch requests

    Forgot to clock in? The employee asks from the app, the manager approves, the log records it.

  • Policies per team

    Working hours, grace periods, breaks and minimum hours, different for each department or site.

  • Shift-aware

    Night shifts that cross midnight, split shifts and rotating weeks are read correctly.

  • Kiosk mode

    A shared tablet at the door for teams without phones, with photo capture.

  • Reports ready to run

    Daily logs, monthly summaries, overtime by department, exported to Excel or PDF.

  • An audit trail

    Every punch, edit and approval kept with time, device and location.

Built around the rules you work under.

The UAE's working-time rules are in the product, not in a checklist on your desk.

  • Overtime at 125% of basic pay, and 150% for work between 10pm and 4am, under Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021
  • Two hours taken off the working day during Ramadan, applied to every shift automatically
  • The 48-hour week and rest-day rules checked when rosters and overtime are planned
  • Attendance records kept and exportable for a MOHRE inspection

What changes on the first of the month.

Three jobs most UAE teams still do by hand.

TaskSpreadsheets & bank portalsRadixHR
Collecting the monthDevice exports and site registers merged into one sheet, one site at a time.Every site and device already in one record, reconciled against the shift.
OvertimeCounted by hand from the sheet and argued over at month-end.Worked out per hour at the right rate, with the hours shown next to the amount.
Site attendanceTaken on trust, or from a WhatsApp photo of the register.Clock-in accepted only inside the site's geofence, with a selfie.

Questions, answered.

From the mobile app with GPS and a selfie, from a biometric device at the door (fingerprint or face), from a shared kiosk tablet, or from the web portal. Every method writes to the same attendance record straight away.

You draw a boundary around each site with a radius you choose. A clock-in from the app is accepted only when the phone is inside it; attempts from outside are logged and shown to the manager, not accepted.

Yes. RadixHR connects to most fingerprint, face-recognition and access-control devices, and punches sync to the platform as they happen. For an unusual device, our team works with yours on the connection.

They submit a missed punch request from the app with the actual time and a reason. The manager approves or rejects it, and the correction is kept in the audit trail.

Automatically. Worked days, overtime, lateness and absence are reconciled against each person's shift and policy, and once the period is locked the figures are in the payroll run. Nothing is re-entered.

Yes. Working hours, grace periods, break lengths, overtime thresholds and deductions are set per policy, and policies are assigned by department, site or employee group.
