Written by Business Toolbox | Feb 2, 2024 3:05:42 AM

Many of your HR processes can benefit from an HR system, including recruitment and onboarding, payroll, performance management, time and attendance tracking, and reporting. Let’s take a closer look at each of these areas.

  • Recruitment and Onboarding

Recruitment and onboarding can be a heavy load on the HR team especially when hiring for multiple roles at a time. It's easy to lose track of each candidate and their progress within the hiring process and onboarding process. Aside from this, it becomes a task heavy process when onboarding a new hire to ensure preparation for their first day is complete.

With an HR system, you can enable the HR team to utilise organised dashboards to keep track of their hiring process and candidate information, allow automated email alerts to keep the HR team up-to-date with candidate status changes and onboarding task assignments and reminders.

  • Payroll

Ensuring accurate and timely payroll administration is essential for any organisation. With the use of integrations, this can streamline the data flow and communication between employees, HR and Payroll. This also avoids double-handling information and user error. Allow your employees easy access to their personal and job information as well as leave balances in a single, secure platform.

  • Performance Management and Employee Development

Provide your HR team with the tools to monitor employee performance, feedback and goal tracking. This will also help managers identify areas where their direct reports can improve on and develop strategies to enhance their personal and professional skillset.

Moreover, having a system in place can enable organisations to personalise employee development plans and recommend training to grow and develop their careers within the organisation.

  • Reporting

Reporting can always be a bit tricky. Depending on the organisations priorities and requirements, custom built reports are a game changer to put your data at full use. 

Having all employee data in one place can be a very powerful tool especially for reporting purposes. You can skip browsing through multiple spreadsheets or different systems to build a report to analyse organisational growth, turnover rates, etc.

Technology is ever growing and is transforming the HR industry for the better! With numerous time-saving benefits and organisational efficiency, it supports the HR team, giving them the competitive edge to enhance candidate and employee experiences and increase engagement within the organisation which in turn allows the HR team to save on costs, scale, grow and retain top talent.
