ONLINE ATTENDANCE SYSTEMS, SUPERVISION, AND EMPLOYEE PERFORMANCE: AN EMPIRICAL STUDY IN THE PUBLIC SECTOR
Keywords:
Online Attendance Implementation, Supervision, Employee PerformanceAbstract
Employee performance is a critical determinant of organizational effectiveness, particularly in public institutions. The implementation of online attendance systems and effective supervision are considered essential mechanisms for improving discipline, accountability, and productivity. Online attendance systems enhance the accuracy of attendance records, minimize fraudulent practices, and enable real-time monitoring, while supervision ensures that employees perform their responsibilities efficiently and professionally. This study examines the effects of online attendance systems and supervision on employee performance using a quantitative survey approach. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using statistical methods. The findings reveal that online attendance systems have a significant positive effect on employee performance, contributing 41.5%, whereas supervision contributes 48.6%. Simultaneously, both variables explain 65.1% of the variation in employee performance, indicating their substantial combined influence. The study concludes that strengthening digital attendance practices, supervisory processes, and performance evaluation mechanisms is necessary to promote greater transparency, fairness, and organizational effectiveness.
