When you activate the setting to take a picture when an employee clocks on a fixed terminal, a biometric analysis is performed. This analysis allows you to get the dubious photo warning when looking at your employees' timesheets.
In order to comply with applicable laws and our terms of service, you must get your employees' consent to perform a biometric analysis from their photos.
How to obtain your employee's consent to perform a biometric analysis
Follow these steps to get their consent:
In Atlas Scheduling, select Settings from the left navigation menu.
Click Attendance.
Make sure that both Take a photo at clock-in and Perform biometric analysis at employee clock-in via the Time Clock app are enabled.
Important: If you enable this, you'll see this warning:
What should be done when an employee doesn't give their consent?
Refer to this article on how to adjust an employee's individual time and attendance settings, and how to disable the biometry.
Important: Even with this setting disabled, a clocking terminal will still take a photo when an employee clocks in or out. This setting only disables the biometric analysis, therefore no dubious photo warning will be seen in the employee's timesheet.
