Today’s Economic Times carries following news :
Facial
recognition could soon jump from your smartphone to your workplace with employers using it to mark attendance and gauge the mood of
the workforce.
Tech
Mahindra, the fifth-largest Indian IT services company by revenue, has launched
a facial-recognition
system for employees at its
Noida office. Employees can now mark their attendance using swipe cards or they
can simply look into the new
facial-recognition terminal and sign in.
Tech
Mahindra Chief people officer
Harshvendra Soin
said
the tool would help the organisation measure the mood of employees when they
use the system through a functionality called “ moodo-meter ”.
The system can recognise nine different facial
expressions. It captures the expression on the face of the employees every time
he or she uses the system and consolidates the information from all employees
daily to create a moodo-meter score, which reflects the mood of the workforce.
“(Most)
organisations do an employee survey once a year but great workplaces do it
every single day. We will know location wise what your moodo-meter is and if it
falls or goes up, it’s either an alarm or something that has gone right” said
Soin.
All
employees who are using facial recognition have given consent which could be
revoked at any time.
