Add location context to attendance records
Where location features are enabled and the required permission is available, Vanta Workforce can add location context to the relevant attendance action.
That gives authorised managers more information when reviewing whether a booking relates to the expected workplace. GPS remains context rather than absolute proof, because device permissions, signal and operating-system behaviour can affect the location information available.
