Attendance
Attendance tracks who's working when — useful for hybrid offices, flexible-hours teams, or any role where presence patterns matter.
What it tracks
- Working days vs off days per person per week
- Office vs remote split (if configured)
- Anomalies — unexpected absences, long absences
How presence is recorded
Three options, in order of effort/accuracy:
A — Implicit — Sageon infers presence from timesheet activity. Time logged on a day = present.
B — Manual — employees mark their working pattern (default: M-F). Override per week.
C — Integrated — connect a swipe-card or Slack integration (Enterprise only).
Manager view
Line managers see a per-team grid of who's in / out / off across the week. Drill into anomalies (e.g. 3 unplanned absences in a row).
Privacy
Attendance data is only visible to the person's line manager and HR admins. Other team members see availability (busy / available) without details.
Tips
- Don't over-track. Attendance monitoring kills trust quickly. Use it for resourcing decisions, not for measuring productivity.
- Set "core hours", not "working hours". Most modern teams should be flexible outside core overlap.
