Kisumu county staff to use office biometric time attendance and access control system
Kisumu County has taken a significant step towards modernizing its workforce management and enhancing security with the implementation of a biometric time attendance and access control system. This initiative, commissioned by Governor Anyang Nyong’o at City Hall, aims to streamline operations and improve accountability within the county’s public service delivery.
Biometric Time Attendance: County workers will use biometric registration, specifically fingerprints, to clock in and out of work. This method ensures accurate recording of attendance, simplifies timesheet management, and enhances accountability.
Access Control: The system also includes access control measures, restricting entry to authorized personnel only. This enhances security by managing who can enter county premises and ensuring a secure environment for staff and visitors alike.
Technological Integration: Governor Nyong’o emphasized the role of ICT in improving service delivery, with automation already implemented in health services and revenue collection. The partnership with Smart Applications International Limited underscores efforts to leverage technology for efficient operations.
Future Plans: The county has further plans to enhance connectivity through partnerships aimed at improving 5G connectivity across underserved areas. This initiative aims to ensure reliable and effective technology-based services throughout Kisumu County.
The introduction of the biometric system represents a significant step towards modernizing administrative processes and enhancing service delivery in Kisumu County. It not only improves operational efficiency but also reinforces accountability and security, essential for effective public service management.
