GHMC Attendance System Turns a Flop

Deccan Chronicle  

Hyderabad: GHMC’s recently introduced AI-driven mobile-based facial recognition biometric system to mark the attendance of sweepers has turned out to be a flop due to technical glitches. Through this system, attendance can be marked by using a photograph of the employee, which in turn is reported to the corporation’s IT wing by its vigilance wing. This system was introduced recently after scrapping the old Aadhaar-enabled biometric-based hand-held device following complaints of its misuse by sanitation wing workers, including sanitary field assistants, who are responsible for marking the attendance of sweepers. However, in Musheerabad circle, the machine marked attendance of two sweepers when a photograph of the staff was scanned even though the person was not present,” said a GHMC official.
