There is a traditional way to record attendance of construction team in Singapore which is punch card attendance system. Aiming at the disadvantages of this system, an Automated Attendance Management System (AMS) was implemented on worker’s time and attendance management. This paper reported the results of configured the setting on Management Software that was able to arrange various division and work schedule, which was suitable for construction team. This system was applied to computerize time and attendance data of workers through Biometric Device & Management Software which accelerated the recording process of time and attendance data and generated comprehensive attendance reports. Furthermore, existing worker’s time card was collected and conducted manually tabulation to make a comparative analysis between these two systems.
