hi sushma
i have already used this measure to control late comings in office. We adopted a system in which late comers will signs the att. reg. wid red pen if they come 15 min. late from time.And four red signatures wid red in one month marked as 1 LWP. But it doesn't work up to the mark. I also want to do something else. But do not find the measure yet to control absentism and late comings. If anybody have some working measure pls let us know.

Dear cgnanig
Try eliminating barriers, causing late comings
If no such barrier, then concentrate on counceling
A policemen's job is not the HR perspective.
Shweta is almost right except - NOT AVAILING LEAVE ( The practice of not availing leave, should NOT be encouraged ).
Modern HR practices does not advocate this.

Dear all,
As swetha said, ya even we do have faced this late coming problem. I have solved this problem by tracing out weekly attendance report of my employees. Interacted with their HOD's and informed through them about the same. We had informedthis late coming will reflect on their performance appraisals. As we have transportation facility to our employees, normally we face less problem on this. Generally we have to rationalise case by case.
If a person regularly comes irregularly, then we need to initiate action against them by issuing warning letter. If it is occational, try to observe the candidate and interact with him to findout the reasons. This will create an atmosphere that HR really taking care of and observing their movements. This will really helpful to control our late coming problem.
and as u said cash price or award to the best punchtual employees will really motivate the other employees to come in that way.

All have given their comments from all angles. It works from situation to situation. If there is any certified standing orders and/ or code of conduct it is advisable to follow them rather than any other modes of action. It will gain weightage in the eye of law. If there is no such certified ones then one should go with the model ones which is readily available in the market.
However if the atmosphere is such that reward or action in other way helps it is also a good one as suggested by sweeta. Understand the pulse of the air and proceed you will get success.

Hi they are not your slaves. Be sensible in sharing ideas. No body wants to attend late to office. It happens sometimes it happens, due to conveyance, or other petty problems.
Hi Shweta.HR
Your comments on paper seems to be good, but at one stage people will realise that 100 / 150 is peanuts... why strain ourself for this peanuts....
You should have a appraisal form from management and as well as from employee when increments are given, and this should reflect during increment and promotions.....
It should be told that due to ur frequent late coming you have lost a promotion, as a responsible employee late coming will effect the workplace which is not advisable.
