What is Biometric Attendance?

A time and attendance tracking method that uses unique biological characteristics like fingerprints, facial features, or iris patterns to verify employee identity at clock-in and clock-out.

Why it matters in hiring

Biometric Attendance comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
