HAIL — The Human Rights Commission (HRC) has suggested a review of a controversial biometric fingerprinting system to monitor the attendance of government employees. Many employees from different government departments objected to the system, saying it has many technical faults. They raised concerns over whether the system was safe because many people would be using it. The Ministry of Civil Service did not comment on the issue.
