The method of recording is yet to be established, although a few other campuses have already done it. The data collection is by questionnaires distribution. Fingerprint identification system was selected among other biometric system devices in some of UiTM campuses due to its affordability, in comparison to other biometric system devices. Reliability also contributes to the selection of the system. Other reason for its selection was it could provide higher security level, eliminate buddy clocking, increase productivity and simplify many aspects of work, improve punctuality, and eliminate physical punch cards thus there will be no recurrence cost. The fingerprint identification system provide benefits to the organization in order to achieve the organization goal.

This study is about time management awareness among UiTM staff that signifies the ability to accept change and new technology in an organization that is complesent with a fully manual clocking system.
