Iris ID has announced that Kurt Wherley has joined the organization as director of sales for workforce management, North America. Wherley will develop new customers and support the sales channel for Iris ID’s recently launched IrisTime biometric-based workforce management platforms.

“Kurt’s vast experience provides him with deep insights into the workforce management needs of small businesses to enterprise organizations throughout North America,” said Mohammed Murad, vice president, global sales and business development, Iris ID. “We’re confident he will drive dramatic growth for our time and attendance solutions.”

At Iris ID, he will oversee the North American sales of IrisTime, which offers a new technique for authenticating employee identity by using a fusion of iris and face recognition to increase accuracy and convenience.

“Iris ID is recognized as the leading innovator and provider of flexible iris-based, biometric identity authentication solutions,” he said. “Now, the company is revolutionizing the time and attendance function with an accurate and flexible platform designed for today’s modern workforce. This position is a great fit for me and my experience in workforce management.”
