Keep the worker action simple and the record clear
For most businesses, Employee Presence Tracking is less about collecting another data point and more about creating a record that can be understood later. Workers need to know when to act, what the app records and how a genuine mistake can be corrected. In this case, that means they should complete the expected attendance action so their current status can update.
The management side is about being able to see who is presently recorded as working and where follow-up may be needed. That judgement is supported by current booking status, workplace and recent attendance activity, not replaced by it. Before rollout, the business should agree who reviews exceptions, how corrections are requested and what fallback applies when the app cannot be used.
