# CSP Connect Overview

**CSP Connect** is a workforce management platform built for event operations. 
It combines a **native mobile app** for casual workers with a **web-based dashboard** for admins and managers, providing the tools needed to coordinate staff across events from scheduling and check-in / check-out through to attendance reporting. CSP Connect does not include a payroll module; it captures the attendance and hours data that your payroll process relies on.

## How It Works

CSP Connect is available on two platforms, each tailored to how that audience interacts with an event:

-   **Mobile App (iOS & Android):** Casual workers use the app to check in and out, manage breaks, and complete any required verifications such as liveness checks or face verification.
-   **Web Dashboard:** Admins and managers access a browser-based dashboard to oversee workforce attendance, manage events and sessions, review audit logs, and configure system settings.
-   **Attendance & Hours Data:** Hours are captured at source and recorded accurately for use by your external payroll process. CSP Connect does not process payroll directly.
-   **Identity & Location Verification:** GPS geofencing and optional liveness checks help confirm that the right worker is in the right place.
