Managing human resources efficiently is more important than ever in today’s business landscape. However, juggling paperwork and spreadsheets can make it overwhelming. This is where Workforce steps in. To illustrate how it works, let’s follow the journey of Irene, an HR manager at a growing tech company.

What is Workforce?

For Irene, drowning in paperwork has become a norm for her. Managing employee records, tracking leaves, processing payroll, and ensuring compliance are some of Irene’s tasks, making her days time-consuming. With a desire to stay afloat and be more in control of her deliverables, Irene introduced Workforce to their company, an all-in-one software program made to centralize employee data and automate repetitive HR tasks.

Transforming HR Operations with Workforce

Here’s how Workforce can help your business the same way it helped Irene and her team:

1. Attendance Tracking

Before, Irene used to receive a lot of complaints about inaccurate work hours and overtime calculations. Remote employees struggled to log their hours manually, resulting in payroll issues. Now that the company is using Workforce, employees can punch in and out using the platform, automatically logging their work hours. Additionally, Workforce keeps track of the time spent on specific projects, giving managers insight into employee productivity.

2. Self-Service Module

Managing employee leave requests, overtime approvals, and inquiries about remaining vacation leaves proved overwhelming for Irene. With Workforce, employees can now submit requests and view their leave balances directly on the platform. And with the requests being automatically forwarded to the supervisors for their approval, Lisa’s administrative load is lessened.

3. Permission-based Access

Before using Workforce, managers and department heads had to manually get sensitive HR data, which raised the risk of errors and unauthorized access. However, since the company started using the platform, Irene now distributes roles within the platform according to employees’ functions. Managers, on the other hand, ensure data security and efficiency by only accessing relevant information for their teams.

4. Configuration

Back when Irene was still using spreadsheets to track holidays, work schedules, and department shifts, she could barely accomplish other tasks. These constant manual updates to spreadsheets lead to errors in payroll processing—a circumstance Irene is too familiar with. But thanks to Workforce, Irene now easily configures work schedules, holidays, job designations, and leave types in the system. These automatically reflect in timesheets and payroll, thereby eliminating errors and saving time.

5. Projects

Back then, effective measuring of resource allocation and productivity was hampered by employees’ inability to track the amount of time they spent on particular tasks. With the help of Workforce, Irene is now able to appoint team members and create projects. Consequently, employees can now keep track of their time spent on each project, making room for improved efficiency and resource planning.

6. Payslip Generator

Payroll used to be such a nightmare for Irene because of regular errors in salary calculations and deductions which led to delays and unhappy employees. With Workforce’s payslip generator, payslips are now automatically generated based on the payroll cutoff, ensuring timely and accurate wage distribution without manual intervention.

7. Employee Data Management

Back then, Irene had to keep her nose buried in several spreadsheets just to locate employee information. But with the help of Workforce, she can now easily access work histories, performance data, and updated profiles in one location. Additionally, employees can update their information through a self-service portal.

8. Reports Generation

Before Workforce, hours of manual data gathering and analysis were needed to generate payroll, attendance, and leave reports. Now, Irene can quickly produce reports that show patterns in absences, payroll expenses, and employee productivity. These insights allow team leaders to make data-driven decisions.

Thanks to Workforce, Irene’s desk is a lot neater, and her team is now dedicating more time to strategic initiatives instead of administrative tasks. This goes to show that Workforce is more than just software—it’s a transformative tool for businesses that streamlines HR operations and enhances employee experience, leading to increased productivity.
