Why Is HR The Last Department To Get Tech Tools?
The article explains that despite widespread technology adoption in other departments, HR often lags in automation, but implementing WorkforceHub from Swipeclock can lower labor costs by preventing time theft, reduce administrative burdens by automating time card management, and simplify compliance with labor laws through accurate tracking of employee hours and schedules.
For the past several years, many companies have been successfully implementing technology for CRM, accounting, merchant transactions, manufacturing, online marketing, and inventory management. As IT teams grow, HR is often the last department to adopt automation.
If your company is still using manual processes to track employee time and attendance and manage employee schedules, you’re missing out on the numerous benefits that Workforce Management solutions like WorkforceHub from Swipeclock can provide to your HR department.
Here are 3 compelling reasons to automate HR:
1. Lower Labor Costs
Employees may forget to punch out for unpaid breaks and meals or may not remember their hours when filling out a time card after the fact. Some employees intentionally pad time cards or punch in for co-workers who are tardy or absent. Multiple studies reveal that time theft is widespread. Even if you don't believe it happens at your organization, statistics suggest otherwise.
WorkforceHub from Swipeclock tracks time to the minute and lets you create employee schedules quickly. This allows you to manage overtime strategically and gather actionable data about employee hours and schedules.
2. Reduce Administrative Burden
TimeWorksPlus automates time card management and shifts the task to the employees. Employees submit timesheets and manage shift changes from the Virtual Trade Board. When your HR staff can complete payroll in minutes, they are free to work on company initiatives that have a bigger payoff. This ensures your workforce is paid accurately and on time while eliminating tedious manual work.
3. Simplify Labor Law Compliance
TimeWorksPlus and TimeSimplicity (the employee scheduling system in WorkforceHub) enable you to easily and effectively comply with FLSA, ACA, and PBJ standards. You can track hours worked, PTO, overtime, and breaks. This helps you avoid penalties, store records for verification, and reduce your risk of a time card dispute.
WorkforceHub from Swipeclock can transform your employee timekeeping and scheduling, and it probably costs less than you think. You can quickly implement affordable WorkforceHub to help you track time, limit labor costs, and stay compliant.
