facial recognition this option is currently not available We couldn't find a camera compatible with Windows Hello Face

The camera - any camera - is an optional purchase with this Zbook.
I would guess that even if the Workstation has a camera that it is not an IR camera.

If your computer does not have a camera,
There is no camera -- not plain camera and not IR camera.
If there were a camera installed in the computer,
and
If the Device Manager did list either the camera or a Webcam
and
The description of that camera or webcam would tell you whether the camera is an IR.
