On the 21st of last
month, the DOPT issued an order announcing its decision to implement the new
biometric attendance system linking the employee’s Aadhaar number with his/her
attendance. This system, according to the order, was to soon be implemented in
offices of all the Central Government departments and their various agencies.
It is well known that
the system has already been implemented in all the Government-run offices in
New Delhi. The order says that the system will be implemented completely before
the end of this year. And, before January 26, 2015, the scheme will be expanded
to other regions of the country.

How do the Central Government employees feel about this new system that has become the talk of the town?

As far as we could
see, about 95% of the employees are not greatly affected or troubled by this
new system.
Once in a while,
employees tend to be late to work due to unavoidable reasons like unexpected
traffic hurdles or they might have to go out for their personal work during
office hours. There is no denying these facts. But the system is a major
irritation for those who are habitually late to work and go out on personal
business during office hours. The change of system has hardly produced any
reaction from those who are regular and on time at work.
But, there are no
answers to the questions raised by employees who are forced to stay back to
complete their work.
