Abstract

The article reports the development of an electronic time clock with facial recognition aimed at Information Technology trainees of the State Department of Justice, Human Rights and Citizenship. This is a device in which it is possible to register the clock-in and clock-out schedules, and in addition, it is possible to check the overtime report where the sector supervisor can offer these hours as days off. Given the deficiencies found in the sector, one being the frequency control that was still being done manually and the other, the high demand for work with the need to work overtime, the theme was developed. The importance of the system is that it makes the dynamics of the working day more automated and optimized. In its creation, the methodology of research, interviews, and data collection was adopted, as well as technological tools such as Biometrics, Programming Language, and Database. After the development and tests, it was possible to implement the electronic time clock in the sector. It was found that with low cost technologies available and with the ease of access to information it was possible to solve the problems of the sector of an organization.
