        abstract = {The “Employee Task Management System” is a web-based application developed using PHP and MySQL, designed to enhance task management processes within an organization. It provides managers with a user-friendly interface for assigning, monitoring, and tracking tasks in real-time, which promotes efficiency and accountability. Tasks can be viewed by their status—pending, in progress, or completed—and can be filtered by employee or task type. This feature gives managers a clearer overview of how many tasks different employees are handling. Employees also have a dedicated area that lists their assigned tasks, provides updates on progress, and offers feedback or reports, thereby improving communication and transparency in workflows. All essential data is stored securely in a MySQL database, which includes employees' personal information, task descriptions, deadlines, and updates. This ensures the system's consistency and easy access to information. The system is protected from unauthorized access through a login function. Basic operations such as adding, viewing, updating, and deleting tasks or employee records have been implemented. Additionally, there is a history log that documents all task changes, ensuring accountability. The system is designed to be expandable to meet organizational needs. Future developments could include automatic notifications via email or SMS for upcoming deadlines and enhanced reporting on performance, as well as integrations with third-party systems like HR tools or time management applications. Ultimately, this approach aims to optimize task management processes, increase accountability, and promote structured teamwork across the organization.},
