RFID Based Employee Monitoring System (EMS) would allow complete hands-free access control, monitoring the whereabouts of employee and record the attendance of the employee as well. The access tag can be read up to 5 (~16 feet) meters from the RFID reader, which usually eliminates the need to handle the tag or to walk very close to the reader. This freedom is particularly important to handicapped workers, staff carrying packages. The proposed system is based on UHF RFID readers, supported with antennas at gate and transaction sections, and employee identification cards containing RFID-transponders which are able to electronically store information that can be read / written even without the physical contact with the help of radio medium. This paper presents the experiments conducted to set up RFID based EMS.
