The manufacturing workforce challenges
What slows HR and operations teams down today — and why spreadsheets can't keep up.
Rotating plant shifts
Multiple rotating shifts and weekly-offs across lines are hard to manage on paper.
Contract & daily-wage labour
Large contract workforces need accurate, auditable attendance and pay.
Overtime & allowances
Shift, overtime and production allowances must follow strict, error-free rules.
Statutory & audit pressure
PF, ESI, PT and labour-law records must be audit-ready at all times.

Customer case study
Suryodaya Steel Industries
The challenge
Gate registers couldn't keep up with a 2,800-strong rotating-shift workforce plus 40 contractor teams. Overtime calculation errors were averaging roughly ₹40,000 a month in overpayment, and contractor-wise labour cost had no clean audit trail.
The solution
High-throughput biometric terminals were installed at every gate, tied to the plant's rotating shift roster so overtime, allowances and contractor attendance are calculated automatically the moment a shift ends.
The result
Overtime overpayment was eliminated entirely, muster rolls are now generated instantly for labour audits, and all 40 contractors' payouts are reconciled the same day instead of at month-end.
The impact
"Statutory compliance — PF, ESI, PT, TDS — all handled automatically. Our auditor was impressed with the reports. We process salary for 350 employees in under 2 hours now, which used to take 2 full days."
Frequently asked questions
Can it handle thousands of workers checking in at a factory gate?⌄
Yes. High-throughput biometric and face capture at factory gates is built for large plants — one manufacturing customer captures 3,000+ workers across 3 shifts with overtime and allowances applied automatically.
Does it manage contract and daily-wage labour separately from permanent staff?⌄
Yes. Contractor-wise headcount, attendance and payouts are tracked independently, so you get compliant payroll and a clear audit trail per contractor even with dozens of contractors on site.
Are muster rolls and statutory reports audit-ready?⌄
Yes. PF, ESI, PT and muster rolls are generated automatically, keeping compliance and audit records ready at all times without manual register-keeping.
