Geofencing

Geofencing draws a virtual boundary around a real location and triggers an action (such as allowing or blocking a clock-in) when a device enters or leaves that boundary.

En contexte

In workforce time tracking, geofencing is often used to enforce that staff can only clock in while physically inside a defined area. It can reduce off-site punching, but it relies on continuous or repeated location reads and hard pass/fail rules, which can misfire on GPS drift, frustrate workers near a boundary, and feel like surveillance. Works councils and privacy regulators frequently scrutinise hard geofences for that reason.

Relation avec BriefQR

BriefQR deliberately does not use a hard geofence. It captures location as a soft review signal a manager can look at if a punch seems off, rather than blocking workers or tracking them continuously.
