The Sierra Leone Ports Authority (SLPA) is beginning to register its employees for the implementation of a biometric system designed for ensuring transparency, accountability and efficiency for the ports. Among some of the specific intents behind the soon to be completed biometric database and the ensuing systems utilizing the data are a time and attendance tracker to ease payroll issues and minimize corruption and to step up security through issuing passes reflective of the biometric data.
Captain Benjamin Davies, the SLPA General Manager, is expecting the new technology to create new advantages in helping complete other critical objectives in the reform process.
