The methods of combining the inputs of production in the process of making output are called technology. Technology can be depicted mathematically by the production function which describes the relation between input and output. The production function can be used as a measure of relative performance when comparing technologies.\u201d\u00a0 Good information to know as you evaluate alternative technologies for a retail and workforce management environment.<\/p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\r\n.ad-area1 { border-radius: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 20px 10px; box-shadow: 0 0px 15px #ddd; margin: 15px 8px; border-top: 5px solid #a81010; }\r\n.left-area, .right-area { width: 50%; float: left; }\r\n.left-area { padding-top: 12px; }\r\n.left-area img { max-width: 95%; }\r\n.right-area h2 { text-align: center; padding-bottom: 0; font-size: 26px; font-weight: 900; margin-top: 0; }\r\n.right-area h2 span { color: #a81010; }\r\n.right-area h3 { text-align: center; font-size: 16px; text-transform: capitalize; font-weight: 700; padding-top: 10px; padding-bottom: 10px; line-height: normal; }\r\n.ad-area-head { text-align: center; font-weight: 900; font-size: 14px; border-bottom: 1px dotted #ddd; width: 70%; margin: 0 auto; }\r\n.ad-area-desc { padding: 5px 0; }\r\n.right-area p { text-align: center; font-size: 12px; padding-bottom: 0; margin: 0; line-height: 2; }\r\n.ad-area-desc b { font-weight: 700; display: block; }\r\n.ad-area1-learn { display: table; margin: 0 auto; background: #a81010; color: #fff; padding: 6px 20px; border-radius: 50px; font-size: 14px; }\r\n.ad-area1-learn:hover { color: #fff; }\r\n\r\n@media (max-width:320px), (max-width:360px), (max-width:375px), (max-width:400px), (max-width:480px) {\r\n.left-area, .right-area { width: 100%; float: none; }\r\n}\r\n<\/style>\r\n<div class=\"ad-area1\">\r\n\t<div style=\"overflow: hidden;\">\r\n\t\t<div class=\"left-area\">\r\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.m2sys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/RightPunch-Biometric-Time-Clock-Software-kronos-adp-m2sys.png\" alt=\"Bio-plugin-SDK\" width=\"\">\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<div class=\"right-area\">\r\n\t\t\t<h2><span>RightPunch\u2122<\/span><\/h2>\r\n\t\t\t<h3>Affordable Biometric Time Clock Software for Kronos and ADP<\/h3>\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"ad-area-head\">Key Features: <\/div>\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"ad-area-desc\">\r\n\t\t\t\t<p>\u00b7 Increase Accountability and Boost Productivity<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t\t<p>\u00b7 Eliminate Time Theft | Reduce Payroll Expenses <\/p>\r\n\t\t\t\t<p>\u00b7 Prevent buddy punching<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t\t<p><\/p>\r\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t<a class=\"ad-area1-learn\" href=\"https:\/\/www.m2sys.com\/rightpunch-biometric-time-clock\/?utm_source=The+Top+15+Reasons+To+Use+Biometric+Technology+In+Workforce+Management+And+Retail+Point+Of+Sale+%E2%80%93+Reason+%232+%E2%80%93+Increase+Productivity&amp;utm_medium=RightPunch%E2%84%A2&amp;utm_campaign=Blog+DisplayAds\">Learn More<\/a>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t<\/div>\t\r\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Increasing Productivity Pays Dividends<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Recently, M2SYS spoke with one of our end users about how they are using biometric technology to calculate employee time and attendance.\u00a0 Since implementing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.m2sys.com\/biometric-fingerprint-readers\/?utm_source=blog%20post&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=blog%20series%20reason%202\"><strong>fingerprint biometric technology<\/strong><\/a>, the end user estimates 10 employment service staff hours saved per pay cycle by eliminating the need for supervisors to authorize hours in the system after processing. That equates to 10 hours per cycle, 20 hours per month and approximately 240 hours per year which they have allocated to other projects and initiatives. \u00a0(Monetarily speaking through a combination of increased productivity and <strong>reducing buddy punching<\/strong> they estimate $15,000 in savings per year through a $5,000 investment in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.m2sys.com\/hybrid-biometric-platform\/?utm_source=blog%20post&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=blog%20series%20reason%202\"><strong>biometric technology<\/strong><\/a>.\u00a0 That\u2019s a 300% return on investment during the first year of using biometric technology and a tremendous boost in productivity for their employment service staff.\u00a0 Not too shabby and you can

style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">What Causes Disruptions In Productivity?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Close your eyes and think for a moment of the little things that inhibit your staff from maximizing their productivity throughout the day.\u00a0 Maybe they forgot their swipe card, PIN, password or login ID to access the system, causing a slight delay as a manager provides an override or an IT support person resets a PIN or user ID.\u00a0 Perhaps there is a line each morning, afternoon and evening at the punchclock which results in a 2 minute delay as employees clock in and out.\u00a0 A couple of minutes may not seem like a big deal, but let\u2019s take the 1<sup>st<\/sup> example of an IT support person resetting a password or login ID extrapolate those numbers across a year\u2019s time and see how they look:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">A Closer Look at the Impact of Biometrics on Productivity<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Number of calls received per day to reset a login ID or password or

time spent on support calls to reset login ID\u2019s and passwords per year:\u00a0 18 hours<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Since implementing biometric technology <a href=\"https:\/\/www.m2sys.com\/pos_software\/?utm_source=blog%20post&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=blog%20series%20reason%202\"><strong>eliminates the need for login ID\u2019s and passwords<\/strong><\/a> and augments operational efficiency, each IT person on staff responsible for performing this function can save approximately 18 hours of their time per year.\u00a0 If you had two people on staff responsible for resetting login ID\u2019s and PIN\u2019s that would be 36 hours per year they could be spending on other IT projects, perhaps concentrating on finding additional cost savings by streamlining technological infrastructure.\u00a0 Think about the extra time that it takes your staff to perform a task which could otherwise be eliminated by using biometric technology.\u00a0 Is it payroll verification?\u00a0 Transaction overrides?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you have cut your prices to the bone, trimmed the fat from your business by eliminating overhead and streamlining processes, consider implementing a technology that has a direct impact on raising the output per hours worked for your staff.\u00a0 Biometrics could be the answer.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">What are some additional ways that you can foresee additional productivity gains from using biometric technology?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Leading up to our participation in the National Retail Federation\u2019s 2011 \u201cRetail\u2019s Big Show\u201d from January 9 \u2013
