Q	1. Why do you infer that TimeTec TA is safer than other attendance methods?
	A	TimeTec TA has an App that can be installed in a smartphone. This alone reduces the chance of cross-contamination because your phone is your private property and we assume you don't share your phone with strangers. Compared to attendance machines such as fingerprint, TimeTec TA definitely safer for employees.

	Q	2. What are the differences between TimeTec TA System and Malaysia government's Gerak Malaysia, MySejahtera and MyTrace App?
	A	The three government Apps are individually motivated; each has its sole objective and simple feature to reduce the risk of Covid-19 transmission. The MySejahtera is for individuals to submit health declaration, Gerak Malaysia is for movement application and control during lockdown period, and MyTrace App enables the identification of people who are close to an infected person. TimeTec TA, on the other hand, is business motivated. It is a comprehensive cloud-based time attendance management system, with an enhanced module to record staffs' body temperatures and their health records. It also has traceable locations of the mobile employees and people they met daily to reduce the risk of Covid-19 transmission. Once the Covid-19 crisis is over, the government systems are expected to shut down entirely, whereas the TimeTec TA system will stay to benefit the business owners and smoothen many aspects of their daily operation, and it should be considered as a part of the digital transformation process for your company.
