Railway Board directs zones to install biometric attendance or facial recognition system for station staff – Here’s why

The Railway Board has ordered 17 zones to install biometric attendance systems for station staff, following concerns about duty swapping and overtime claim irregularities. The CVC suggested this measure to link digital attendance records with overtime claims, enhancing accountability. While the board emphasizes strict adherence, some station masters express concerns that...

the new system could lead to increased overtime costs. Currently, there are no biometric systems in place, and staff work based on physical rosters. A station supervisor argues that overtime claims are infrequent and any irregularities should be addressed individually.

Railway Board ne 17 zones ke general managers ko station staff ke liye biometric attendance machines ya facial recognition systems install karne ka order diya hai. Ye order Vigilance Directorate ki recommendation ke baad aaya hai, jisme duty swapping aur overtime claim me irregularities ki baat thi. CVC ne biometric systems...

install karne ka suggestion diya tha taki digital attendance records ko overtime allowance claims se link kiya ja sake aur system me accountability badh sake. Board ne strict adherence ki baat kahi hai, lekin kuchh station masters ka kehna hai ki ye new measures counterproductive ho sakte hain. Ab tak stations par koi biometric system nahi hai aur staff apne superiors dwara taiyar physical rosters ke basis par kaam karte hain. Ek station supervisor ka kehna hai ki bahut kam overtime claims hote hain aur agar koi irregularity hoti hai to usko case to case basis par deal karna chahiye.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
