Remote work attendance should begin with clear expectations, not surveillance. Employees need to know their approved work arrangement, expected availability, attendance method and how to report a genuine exception. Managers need a way to review records fairly while staying focused on outcomes.
Define the arrangement
Document which roles can work remotely, on which days or locations, and what the approval process is. A policy that says only “work from home is allowed” leaves too many important decisions unanswered.
Use attendance proportionately
Choose an approved method that fits the work, explain what information is collected and provide a correction path for device or connectivity issues. Hajiri’s attendance tools give teams a clear record while allowing organisations to set their own policy.
Manage work through priorities and check-ins
Attendance confirms presence under an approved arrangement; it does not replace a manager’s responsibility to set priorities and remove blockers. Combine a fair check-in process with clear tasks, regular conversations and realistic workload planning.
Trust grows when employees understand the process and managers use information only for its stated purpose.
Ask, add, or respond.
