Business Description
Overview
The "Employees" module is designed to streamline and optimize personnel management within an organization. Its primary objective is to provide users with an effective way to handle their workforce-related tasks while also serving as a repository of employee information. An employee is also a user of the system, with an HR position assigned.
Within this module, you will find the key details of each employee: Employee Status, Position, Organizational Unit, supervisor, phone numbers, email address and address. This information helps HR professionals and managers make informed decisions regarding staffing, resource allocation and team dynamics.
The module also acts as a hub for records related to the employee, such as contracts, periods of employment, benefits, goals, appraisals, trainings, tasks, kudos, and the onboarding and offboarding processes. They are available in the subpanels of the employee's detail view (see Relations below).
