ACCESS CONTROL SOLUTION Managing access to resources is assuming increasing importance for organizations everywhere, from public to privates. Even organization now recognizes the danger of security breach due to the tensed security situations in the country today. Access control is, in reality, an everyday phenomenon. The possession of access control is of prime importance when persons seek to secure important, confidential, or sensitive information and equipment in organizations. Such areas may include Store, Technical Department and Executive room, etc. It is also important that unauthorized person do not have access to the company’s premises. This begins, of course, with controlling the entrances and exits to buildings.

Lightning is one of nature’s most powerful and destructive phenomena

Lightning discharges contain awesome amounts of electrical energy and have been measured from several thousand amps to over 200,000 amps – enough to light half a million 100 watt bulbs! Even though a lightning discharge is of a very short duration (typically 200 microseconds) it is a very real cause of damage and destruction. The effects of a direct strike are obvious and immediately apparent – buildings damaged, trees blown apart, personal injuries and even death. However, the secondary effects of lightning – the short duration, high voltage spikes called transient overvoltages can, and do, cause equally catastrophic, if less visually obvious, damage to the electronic systems inside a building. Protecting electronic systems We are continually meeting people who have structural lightning protection for their building, but have suffered damage to the – unprotected – electronic systems within. Simply stated, a structural lightning protection system cannot and will not protect the electric systems within a building from transient overvoltage damage. A total solution A reliable lightning protection scheme must encompass both structural lightning protection and transient overvoltage (electric systems) protection. That’s why we advocate a Total Solution approach to lightning protection – to ensure complete protection of your employees, the fabric of your building and the electronic systems therein. Why is lightning protection so important? The function of an external lightning protection system is to intercept, conduct and disperse a lightning strike safely to earth. Without such a system a building’s structure, electronic systems and the people working around or within it are all at risk. There are many ways in which lightning strikes can cause damage or injury. Lightning strikes (or even electrical discharges due to nearby lightning) can cause fires, explosions, chemical release or mechanical disruption within or around a building. Step and touch voltages generated from a lightning strike can cause injury, or even loss of life, to humans (and animals) in the close vicinity. At Furse, we are fully aware that all these risk need to be considered and protected against when developing a lightning protection system. With over 100 years of experience our support and expertise has assisted thousands of businesses, both large and small, to achieve effective protection against lightning. External lightning protection A structural lightning protection system is of the people inside by channelling the lightning strike in a safe and controlled manner to the earth termination network. designed to protect the fabric of a structure and the lives of the people inside by channelling the lightning strike in a safe and controlled manner to the earth termination network. Using the Faraday Cage principal as advocated by the majority of national and international standards, Furse offers a range of air terminals, bases and clamps for the air termination network and an extensive range of down conductors and fixings. Furse only supply high quality materials and fixings, since it only takes a single sub-standard component to compromise the performance of a structural lightning protection – or earthing system. Internal lightning protection (Electronic systems protection) The increasing pace of technological development has created the scenario where increasingly lightning sensitive systems are essential to our society. Both the threat of damage to vital electronic systems, and the seriousness of the consequences of that damage, are more real than ever before. Most modern electronic systems are at risk: Computers Data communication networks Building management systems PABX telephone exchanges CCTV equipment Fire and burglar alarms Telecom Base stations Uninteruptible power supplies (UPSs) Programmable logic controllers (PLCs) Plant sensors Telemetry and data acquisition equipment Loss of these systems would cripple industrial, commercial and governmental organizations alike. At Furse, we are fully aware that all these risk need to be considered and protected against when developing a lightning protection system. With over 100 years of experience our support and expertise has assisted thousands of businesses, both large and small, to achieve effective protection against lightning.

HOW CAN BIOMETRIC IDENTIFICATION COMBAT TIME THEFT?

Biometric identification is now considered a reliable and cost effective solution for implementation into a workforce management system to combat time theft. Biometrics Attendance Management Systems – a time attendance solution specifically developed to improve your workforce management by monitoring and tracking staff attendance, resumption and departure times of staff at work, number of hours worked by staff, number of days at work, amount of extra hours worked, amount of extra hours’ incentives earned. Statistics reveal that up to 25% of employee salaries are unjustifiable and which have a negative effect on the overall productivity on the company.

Privilege Management

Time attendance and access control are a necessity for a successful business operation, as an entrepreneur or a business individual, these should be controlled and be treated with utmost importance.

Biometric attendance system in the workforce management has great potential not only to combat time theft of employees but also to increase productivity and profits. Biometric workforce management attendance systems have great potential to not only combat time theft of employees but also to increase productivity and profits. Time theft is widely considered as a great obstacle of employee productivity and profit maximization in the workforce management industry. Time theft at works occurs when an employee accepts pay from their employer for time they have not actually put in, and it can occur in different ways such as time clock theft, proxy attendance, buddy punching, over extended breaks, excessive personal time, and more. Biometric identification technology is now taking a permanent place in the workplace to combat time theft and increase profits in the workforce industry, for many reasons. However, business are looking for new ways or technology to prevent employee time theft and effectively manage their attendance. The use of biometric identification for employee time and attendance is the most reliable option and the future of workforce management accountability may be non-existent without this very useful technology

WHY DOES WORKFORCE MANAGEMENT NEED BIOMETRICS TO COMBAT TIME THEFT?

Biometric technology isolates and captures unique human physiological characteristics to identify a person. Once upon a time this technology was only seen in sci-fi movies but each day it becomes a go-to technology for government identity projects, law enforcement agencies (e.g. police, forensic departments, and detective branches) for fast and accurate identification. Biometric identification is accurate, secure, and end user solutions are specifically designed to be user friendly to help bring convenience to the workplace. The main reason of implementing a biometric system into workforce management for eliminating time theft is that it identifies a person by biometric credentials such as a fingerprint, finger vein, palm vein or iris, which cannot be lost, forgotten, guessed, or easily cloned. Therefore, there is less chance of any kind of time theft. HOW CAN BIOMETRIC IDENTIFICATION COMBAT TIME THEFT? Biometric identification is now considered a reliable and cost effective solution for implementation into a workforce management system to combat time theft. Biometrics Attendance Management Systems – a time attendance solution specifically developed to improve your workforce management by monitoring and tracking staff attendance, resumption and departure times of staff at work, number of hours worked by staff, number of days at work, amount of extra hours worked, amount of extra hours’ incentives earned.
