HR & Payroll Software

An employer survey by SD Worx shows that digital HR is hot. More and more companies are setting up projects to get ahead of the digital transformation curve. Selecting a made-to-measure core HR management system (HRMS) is obviously a real gamechanger. But how do you choose the right HR software? This is how you separate contenders from pretenders.

Already a key concern since the beginning of COVID-19, operational efficiency stays top of mind. Understandable, but don’t just concentrate on doing things right. Doing the right things is just as important. And HR analytics could well be the glue between efficiency and effectiveness. Check the opportunities in 3 HR domains.

In this increasingly globalised world, there is a vast array of opportunities for businesses to explore. For companies looking to expand their international reach, payroll is one of the biggest consideration factors.

Business leaders are always searching for dynamic new ways to improve their business strategy, but there's one source of data which still remains largely untapped. There is a wealth of potential strategy ideas to be found in a place businesses already have unrestricted access to - their payroll system.

In the digital world, ensuring that you have a healthy work/life balance has never been so important. However, in this ‘always-on’ environment, it can prove difficult to step away from the world of work and to take that all-important break from your seemingly never-ending to do list. Some HR and payroll professionals see the introduction of HR tech as another cause of stress, with many fearing that it will threaten the future of the industry. However, the introduction of automation and other technologies could be the answer to empowering the HR professional and maintaining a healthy work/life balance.

If you’re running a small business, you’re probably spinning a lot of plates. One such plate is HR and payroll for your employees - undeniably too important to ignore. No matter how much time your business can devote to HR operations, it’s important that the processes in place are the most efficient possible.

Running global payroll for an organisation operating in multiple countries can, at times, become somewhat overwhelming. With various rules and regulations to comply with and huge data sets to handle, many payroll professionals would welcome a helping hand.

In today’s business landscape, an agile workforce needs an agile workplace. Whether you’re a large multinational organisation or a small, growing business, we must all adapt to the changing demands of the workforce. Employees are looking for fast-paced and fluid environments that can cater for the ever increasing gig economy, alongside the growth of short-term or freelance contracts that fit around the specific needs of individual employees.
 

Human Resources has always played a vital role in organisations around the world. However, throughout the long history of HR, its place in the business has often been reduced to an admin function. Primarily focusing on people and employees, an HR professional’s role has a direct impact on people’s lives, but its effect is felt way beyond this.

Human Resources is a data driven industry. With so much company and employee information available, the challenge for many HR professionals is how to utilise it most effectively. No organisation can survive without data, and its importance within the overall business strategy only continues to grow as we enter a new decade.

From being healthier to digital detoxes, many of us adopt resolutions at the start of the new year. However, it’s not only personal resolutions that should be set in January each year - professional goals should not be overlooked either. Employees might focus on their work/life balance or wellbeing, or might embark on various training sessions to improve their skills.
