NIA'S ATTENDANCE MONITORING SYSTEM GOES DIGITAL

As technology is constantly evolving, the National Irrigation Administration must embrace new technology to enhance its workflow.

The Software Developers from the Management Information Division, led by Ms. Sussie Taniegra, in collaboration with staff from the Human Resource Division and Administrative Department, under the guidance of Ms. Portia Angulo Sandoval from the NIA Central Office, have developed the Personnel Attendance Monitoring Information Sub-System (PAMIS). This system aims to digitally track and manage each employee's attendance records, including hours of duty, leave applications, overtime requests, and more.

The training on how to use the system was conducted on July 18-19, 2023, at the NIA Central Office, IEC Building. Attendees from Region VI included Maritess M. Bolinas, Administrative Services Officer V; Geraldine G. Cabaobao, Administrative Services Officer A from Iloilo-Guimaras IMO; Mae Gwendolyn D. Opiña, Industrial Relations Management/Development Officer C from Antique IMO; Laryzza R. Dolido, Industrial Relations Management/Development Officer C from Aklan-Capiz IMO; Florentina L. Magbanua, Administrative Services Officer A from Negros Occidental IMO; Joie T. Sandoy, Engineering Assistant A; Arnel V. Amadeo, Administration Services Assistant B; and Raylene Joy Tibang, Senior Computer Services Programmer.

Armed with the knowledge acquired from the training, the participants are now well-prepared to deploy and implement the system upon their return to NIA Region VI.
