Suprema's time and attendance solution replaces manual timesheets and swipe cards with biometric identity — eliminating buddy-punching and providing accurate, audit-ready workforce data. BioStar 2 TA integrates with leading South African payroll platforms and exports shift, overtime, and absence data in standard formats.

BioStation 2a and BioStation 3 terminals provide fast, contactless facial or fingerprint clock-in/out with 3,000 matches per second — supporting high-throughput shift changeovers without queues.

Deployment Scenario

A manufacturing plant with three shifts and 500 workers uses BioStation 2a terminals at each gate. Workers clock in with a face scan in under 0.3 seconds — no queues, no cards, no fraud. Shift data syncs automatically to BioStar 2 TA, which exports a payroll-ready report to the HR system at the end of each pay cycle. Supervisors see real-time attendance on their mobile devices.
