Eliminate Error-Prone Manual Processes
The transition from fragmented HR processes to a unified, digital Workforce Management platform is not merely a technological upgrade; it is a fundamental shift in business strategy.
Manual processes often lead to costly errors, excessive administrative overhead, and significant compliance risks due to inconsistent policy application. Softworks’ HRIS software transforms this chaotic landscape into an intelligent, data-driven operation centred on Core HR functions.
This core capability ensures that all employee lifecycle stages, from initial Onboarding to ongoing Benefits Administration and eventual offboarding, are managed consistently, accurately, and in full adherence to regional and international law.
Creating Irrefutable Workforce Data with HRIS software
A core principle of our HRIS software is maintaining a single source of truth for all employee data—where the power of the Employee Database converges with automated administrative tasks.
Our dedicated HRIS software automatically manages and updates records, ensuring high data integrity—a necessity for accurate Payroll Processing and comprehensive reporting.
And employees gain transparent, real-time access to their records via the Employee Self-Service (ESS) portal, drastically reducing administrative queries.
Ensuring Legal Workforce Compliance
Our HRIS software links our data management functionality to stringent Compliance Management rules.
We provide immediate visibility into potential violations of data privacy (like GDPR) or labour laws while transforming your HR administration into a strategically managed variable, protecting both the business and the employee.
HRIS Software for Strategic Human Capital Management
The strategic benefits of our cutting-edge HRIS platform extend beyond cost control and into strategic human capital management.
With global and regional labour laws constantly evolving, maintaining robust Compliance Management is non-negotiable.
Our system is pre-configured to understand and enforce a vast array of regulatory limits concerning:
- Working time
- Sick pay regulations
- Benefits Administration requirements
Proactive Compliance Management prevents costly penalties and legal liabilities that often arise from manual oversights, offering significant benefits for any organisation operating across borders or in regulated industries.
Enjoy peace of mind, demonstrating a commitment to ethical labour practices. And let Softworks provide the foundation for sustainable operational efficiency, high-level compliance, and data-driven people strategies through sophisticated HR Analytics.
The Evolution of HRIS Software
The days of manual, paper-based HR processes and procedures are numbered as digital tools and strategies swiftly replace them. HRIS software primarily serves as a central hub for securely storing and managing a wealth of employee data.
At Softworks, we have seen firsthand how the pandemic accelerated HR digital transformation plans, exposing significant gaps in HR data and technology infrastructure for many organisations.
Modern HRIS software is a necessity for:
- Automating repetitive manual processes
- Enhancing employee experience
- Utilising people data to improve organisational performance
By centralising key HR functions, our software significantly reduces administrative burdens, allowing for informed, data-driven decisions and improved overall organisational efficiency.
Centralised Data Management: A Single Source of Truth
One of the primary functions of effective HRIS software is to act as the single source of truth for your organisation. Softworks’ HR Management solution lets you access personnel details, employment history, time and attendance, and skills information quickly and efficiently.
Many organisations still struggle with disjointed manual processes—such as emails, spreadsheets, and paper forms—to manage employee data. These methods are error-prone, time-consuming, and fail to provide real-time data.
Our HRIS systems software consolidates data from various HR functions, providing a unified view for analysis and decision-making. This includes:
- Personnel Management: Managing HR master data, recruitment details, and salary administration.
- Organisational Management: Mapping out your specific organisational structure, staffing schedules, and job descriptions.
- Document Management: Storing individual employee documents such as contracts, letters, CVs, skills certification, and work visas electronically, eliminating the need for physical filing cabinets.
HRIS Software Case Study
Our client, Harman Technology, transitioned from paper files to scanning documents directly into the Softworks document store, accessible only by authorised personnel.
This eliminated the need to keep local files, providing a massive benefit from a GDPR compliance perspective.
Streamlining Administration and Reducing Costs
The administrative burden on HR professionals can be overwhelming. We’ve developed our HRIS software to automate manual processes. By automating workflows, organisations can reduce time spent on data entry and administrative tasks, allowing HR staff to focus on strategic initiatives.
Our software automatically generates emails, eliminating paper, improving response speed, and reducing errors. This automation extends to critical areas such as:
- Onboarding: Streamlining the entry of new starter details.
- Contract Reviews: Setting up rules for triggered alerts to remind managers of contract reviews and probation periods.
- Performance Appraisals: Replacing paper HR forms with electronic forms to complete performance reviews directly within the system.
By automating and streamlining these essential HR processes, organisations can achieve significant cost savings by reducing paperwork and decreasing reliance on physical storage.
Enhancing Compliance and Security
Navigating the complex landscape of employment law and data protection is a significant challenge for HR leaders, making HRIS software essential for mitigating risk and ensuring compliance.
Softworks’ solutions are built to ensure regulatory compliance with data regulations and maintain high security standards to protect sensitive employee information.
- GDPR Compliance: Our software supports the principles of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), such as data minimisation, accuracy, and storage limitation. We facilitate employee rights, such as the Right of Access and the Right to Rectification, through our self-service portals.
- Regulatory Adherence: Whether it is the European Working Time Directive, the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), or the Canada Labour Code, our system is configured to capture your organisation’s specific rules to ensure compliance.
- Audit Trails: The software provides complete audit trail functionality, ensuring the confidentiality of employee data due to advanced system security profiles.
We believe system security is paramount at Softworks, which is why we’re ISO 27001 certified, ensuring our information security practices meet the highest standards. This gives our clients peace of mind that their employee data is handled with the utmost care.
Skills and Training Management
An often-overlooked aspect of HRIS software is the management of employee development.
A proficient and skilled workforce is essential for organisational success. Softworks’ Learning & Skills Tracking module allows organisations to track employee skills, training, and qualifications while managing their current and future learning requirements.
Our HRIS systems software allows you to:
- Track Certifications: Maintain accurate records of employees’ skills and certifications, including expiry dates.
- Automate Alerts: Set up alerts to notify managers and employees when skills or training are due to expire, protecting the business from regulatory or health and safety risks.
- Identify Gaps: Identify skill gaps where no one has the necessary skills and detect training needs so that training plans can be created.
By automating skills and training management, the system ensures that workers possess the necessary qualifications to perform their roles effectively, leading to enhanced quality and safety.
Reporting and Strategic Analytics
To be a true strategic partner, HR directors need access to accurate, real-time data. Our HRIS software transforms raw data into actionable insights. And having access to the right datasets is crucial for HR leaders aiming to navigate the complexities of modern workforce management.
Softworks provides a complete suite of Dashboards and over 1,000 reports, giving you a clear picture of workforce trends. Our system enables you to:
- Benchmark Performance: Compare and contrast one department’s performance against another or against the company average.
- Analyse Trends: View real-time dynamic information on employee trends such as absences, lates, and leaving early to provide accurate management information.
- Forecast Needs: Use predictive analytics to forecast workforce needs and allocate resources accordingly.
With Softworks HRIS software, you can report on workforce metrics confidently from a single source without worrying about stale or inaccurate spreadsheets. This analytical capability allows HR leaders to make informed decisions that drive organisational growth.
Seamless Integration
An effective HRIS does not operate in a silo. A key requirement for modern HRIS software is the ability to integrate with other critical business systems. Softworks offers extensive integration capabilities, connecting seamlessly with payroll, time and attendance, and ERP systems.
Our solution automates data transfer, eliminating duplication and ensuring an irrefutable, accurate source of organisational information.
We integrate with hundreds of payroll management systems globally, including major platforms like SAP, Oracle, Sage, Microsoft Dynamics, Ceridian, Workday, and ADP. This integration ensures that payroll is processed accurately and on time, which is fundamental to employee satisfaction.
