Mr Jide runs a small business with three branches all over Lagos. He puts in the work and effort to make sure all branches run smoothly. However, he doesn’t believe in having an HR department because he believes having an HR budget would bring an expensive burden on his budget. This has led to inefficient hiring, lack of effective policies in place, unfair performance appraisals, limited scope for training employees, and inappropriate payroll and compensation. Mr Jide came across Swifta HR software and got to understand that the HR management process is not just another administrative function when handled appropriately. Telling his story, he highlights some of the benefits he has enjoyed so far after deploying the Swifta HR software. Here is why SMEs should adopt HR software.
- Improved Employee Experience
When employees spend time searching and gathering information they fail to complete effort towards important tasks. Swifta HR Software has an integrated self-service portal which empowers employees to get access to all their information such as payroll, leave balance, increment, appraisal, and so on. This information accessibility improves employee experience and boosts their morale, thereby increasing their engagement leading to productivity for the business.
- Data Security and Accessibility
Even for SMEs traditional ways of recording and accessing employee data needs spending considerable effort. Swifta HR management software helps you easily manage employee records. The system stores data digitally which can be retrieved immediately when needed. And since the information is stored on the cloud, we take necessary steps to ensure your employee data is secure.
- Run error-free payroll
With manual payroll calculation, human errors are natural. One of the major drawbacks of using traditional methods for payroll processing is that it can lead to costly errors. Also, your employee may find it challenging to manage the criticality of payroll calculation along with their existing workload.
- Allign Employee Effort with business goals
A streamlined HR management system enables you to identify the capabilities of each employee, realize their individual goals, and allocate tasks aligned with your business objectives. When goals are predefined, it helps employees to understand their contribution and prioritize workflows to remain engaged and motivated for improving their performance to achieve their assigned goals.
Mr Jide has noticed a significant change in the productivity of his business, since he started using Swifta HR software.
