Day care centers in the UK are already known for being early adopters of biometric technology used for physical access control keeping unwanted people away from customers’ children, according to an Industry Today article.
Recently, however, many of those nurseries have found a new use for the same technology that helps them maximize operational efforts to improve what staff works with what children.
The system, developed by biometric solutions developer UK Time Solutions, helping nurseries achieve this new use of biometric technology is essentially a biometric time and attendance keeper, only with one new function in its software. Now in addition to properly tracking and managing payroll and time clock activity for employees, this system is also able to make sure a proper staffing schedule that utilizes the right skills at the right times is in use.
Another benefit, which is particularly useful for companies like The Nurserytime Group who manages three nurseries at different locations, is that one system can manage and track staffing schedules at multiple locations from one base system. Officials from The Nurserytime Group are already reporting beneficial results for the children, parents and staff.
