Why is an Employee Information Management System Important for your Business? Understanding the Benefits

An employee information management is a crucial part of any business and a valuable investment. The daily work and contributions of your team members play a major role in the success of your company, and it is important that you manage them accordingly. Many businesses are now considering the use of an employee information system to help manage the needs of the human resources department and utilize all of their employees to the highest ability level. When this type of management system is used successfully within an organization, HR operations will run more efficiently and a significant costs savings can be seen.

Digital employee data management is generally run through an easy to use web based platform. In a digital system, information can be easily stored and retrieved. This includes items such as employee contact information, payroll reports, job descriptions, government laws and current and historical leave tracking. Additional information stored in a web based system includes application and hiring data, human resources policies, handbooks and emergency contacts. The management system will track information about each employee, including the time they devote to a certain project, daily work output, performance records, training and management skills. This information can be helpful when deciding on promotions and writing evaluations.

When deciding on an employee information management system, make sure to choose one that works with the existing set up of your company's human resources department. This will ensure high productivity and the best use of employee time. Make sure that the management system offers a variety of helpful tools and is user friendly and can be easily accessed by your employees, manager and the human resources team. Decide what features your business finds the most important and make sure the system you choose offers these items in an easy to use format.

Your human resources team will see improved productivity and a variety of other benefits when using an employee information management system. These tools will help reduce the HR daily workload by eliminating the redundancy of paperwork and administrative tasks and also ensuring data accuracy. Employee data management is an important part of any business and maintaining an organized and smoothly run HR department is crucial to a satisfying work experience. By streamlining the daily tasks of your human resources team with the technology of a web based data system, your company will experience increased productivity, employee satisfaction and a significant cost savings.

Sieena Launches 365Kin, an Employee Self-Service Portal

Sieena Launches 365Kin, an Employee Self-Service Portal

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 22, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Sieena announced today the release of the first version of 365Kin™, an Employee Self Service Portal designed to increase employee productivity and keep HR departments focused on their most important tasks. The Software as a Service (SaaS) HR SharePoint portal includes new modules for vacation and holiday tracking as well as one for personal data administration.

HR personnel are constantly interrupted by holiday and vacation leave requests. While considered to be important to both employees and companies alike, these repetitive tasks are time consuming, decrease productivity, and prevent HR personnel from focusing on more strategic activities. The HR SharePoint portal will function as a key employee touch point, freeing HR departments from tedious undertakings as well as helping them to have a much more organized personnel information management.

365Kin is a web-based automated leave tracking system that allows employees to access and update the most frequently requested vacation data themselves 24/7, 365 days a year from any computer without having to go through HR. Employees can create, track and update their leave requests, as well as access and update their personal information (such as contact information, experience and education among other information). 365Kin enables the HR staff as well as direct supervisors to approve or deny any changes and update a central calendar that will always document absences—allowing companies to preserve data integrity, and maintain quality control.

With 365Kin, companies will reduce HR costs and errors, boost workforce productivity, morale and improve internal service at all levels of any organization.

"In today's economy, companies are even more intent on keeping their employees as productive, and strategically-focused than ever," said Mauricio Duran, Sieena President. "365Kin will add a new layer of efficiency to our HR customers' internal processes, while empowering employees to get the vacation or leave tracking information they need immediately - whether they're in the office or at home on the weekend."
