Every HAWA feature, module by module
From the biometric badge on the wall to the payslip in the teacher’s hand, here is everything the admin panel and the terminal app do.
Biometric attendance
Teachers badge in and out on wall-mounted Android terminals. HAWA matches every badge to the class that was scheduled.
4 features
-
Check-in and check-out by fingerprint
Every arrival and departure is recorded on the terminal and matched to the teacher’s scheduled class, room and time slot.
- Wall-mounted Android terminals
- Arrival and departure compared with the timetable
- Early, on-time and late badges clearly flagged
-
Grace periods you control
Set how many minutes of lateness are tolerated so a short delay is not counted against a teacher.
- Tolerance before and after each class
- Applied automatically to coverage and pay
- Change it at any time from the admin panel
-
Manual sign-in when a terminal is down
If a terminal has an issue, an administrator records the sign-in and sign-out from the admin panel so the day is never lost.
- Sign-in and sign-out entered by authorized admins
- Each manual entry is traceable
- Coverage and pay recalculated instantly
-
Self-service on the wall terminal
After badging, teachers see the hours they’ve worked, their upcoming classes and what their next pay will look like.
- Hours worked this period
- Next classes with room and time
- Estimated next pay
Authentication options
Teachers badge with a fingerprint, an NFC card or their face. Choose the method per school and terminal, or combine two for more security.
4 features

Fingerprint
The surest way to stop badging for a colleague: a fingerprint can’t be lent or shared.
- FBI and ISO certified sensors on most terminals

- No card to lose or forget
-
NFC / RFID card
A quick tap of a badge, for staff who can’t use fingerprints or as a second check.
- 13.56 MHz Mifare/NFC and 125 kHz cards, depending on the terminal
- Cards printed with your school logo on request

-
Face recognition
Contactless and fast, ideal for busy entrances in the morning.

Iris, palm and combined modes
On compatible terminals, add iris or palm vein recognition, or require two methods for sensitive roles.

- The right level of security for each building
Timetables without overlaps
Place teachers, classes and rooms on the timetable. HAWA refuses any slot where two of them would collide.

Course coverage and fraud control
Know exactly how much of each session and each course was really taught, and spot missing hours before they are paid.
4 features
-
Session coverage in percent
For a 4-hour session, arriving and leaving on time gives 100%. Otherwise HAWA shows the exact share of the session covered.
- Calculated from real badge times
- Grace periods taken into account
- Visible to teachers on the terminal
-
Course volume tracking
For a 40-hour course, every session taught is deducted from the total so you always know what’s delivered and what’s left.
- Hours delivered and remaining per course
- Alerts for courses falling behind
- Per class and per teacher
-
Fraud prevention
Hours are only counted when badges match the timetable, so skipped or shortened classes can’t go unnoticed.
-
Reversible actions
Fraudulent or accidental entries can be reversed, with a history of what changed and who changed it.
Teacher payroll
Payslips are generated from hours actually taught multiplied by the right rate for the course, level and semester.
2 features

Automatic payslips
HAWA multiplies the hours actually taught by the teacher’s rate and generates ready-to-print payslips.

Rates per course, level and semester
Set hourly rates per course, per semester and per class level, and let HAWA apply the right one every time.
