Abstract

This work proposes a Mobile Information System that can serve HR departments in companies to conduct remote workforce location-based control, by means of a non-intrusive use of employees’ own smartphones, taking benefit from the IT Consumerization phenomenon. This proposal provides quantitative and qualitative references that should be met with respect to the location information accuracy needed in common control scenarios for the remote workforce. A fully working prototype of the proposed Mobile Information System was developed to evaluate the validity of the strict accuracy and precision requirements proposed for location data, using a standard check-in process at remote workplaces under real world conditions. The results obtained in this study confirm that at present it is viable for companies to implement an Information System for the control of remote workforce that allows the companies to gain competitiveness, adopting a BYOD paradigm which allows their employees to use their own smartphone mobile devices in the workplace.
