https://www.vergesense.com/ is one such company that we use at my work as well as badge data and logs for laptops connecting to corporate wifi. All of these data points can be extrapolated to determine if someone has been in office or not.

There's a running joke of "well I got my one swipe in today, I'm going home" which seems to be common for every office I visit.
