The News that the Chilean Mine Workers are finally breathing clean air again and back with their loving families is fantastic news. But what will happen when the dust settles?
As soon as the news broke that the miners were trapped there was confusion as to how many were trapped and who was trapped.
Knowing where you employee’s are should a disaster strike falls under every employers duty of care. The Health and Safety of every individual under the company roof is paramount and in such cases of a fire alarm sounding every department head should have instant access to the attendance data of their direct reports.
Knowing who is in the building, out on site, off sick or on lunch helps the emergency services greatly in their task to bring the dangerous situation under control.
Attendance Monitoring Systems record, track and report upon employee attendance, absence, sickness and general whereabouts during the working day.
Only time will tell how the Miners will react to their ordeal. We offer our congratulations to the emergency services who rescued them and once again humanity has prevailed.
