One can always find employees who cannot report to work on time. It is difficult to be punctual and it is the procrastination attitude that always hampers punctuality. For many waking up in the wee hours of the morning is the most hammering task and is the reason why one tends to get late.

It is important to be vigilant when it comes to attendance. Organizations can issue levy during some instances or a maximum limit should be sanctioned post which the employee should be penalized. Attendance should be closely monitored and the HR department is responsible for maintaining such records. Communicate your disapproval to the employee as it can be unfair to the other employees.

The employee should be allowed to leave early if there exists a genuine reason. But if one particular employee takes early leave too often it may offend the co-employees hence it is also important to sanction leaves depending on the number of leaves pending.

Major offices rely on the attendance of the employee for salary compensation. Hence it is important to record this attendance with utmost care.
