Pension auto-enrolment: How business advisers can help employers
The introduction of pension auto-enrolment will be significant for Irish employers. Business advisors could help you to prepare.
Leave management systems can help you keep accurate records and empower employees to self-manage their time-off requests and attendance.
Leave management software helps to streamline the process of tracking and managing employee absences, and reduces the potential for errors and disputes. It ensures compliance with legal and company-specific leave policies, and cuts down admin time, allowing for a more focused and efficient approach to workforce management.
Access our cloud-based leave and absence management system from any location, and on any device. With attendance and holiday tracking features, your team can update records on the go.
With the right absence management software in place, you can spot challenges with attendance to help identify colleagues or teams that need more support or resources.
Attendance tracker and leave management systems ensure that everyone gets paid accurately, and for hours worked. Boost morale, increase productivity, and make payments run smoothly.
Attendance tracking and absence management software automatically records time spent on different projects. Reduce human error, minimise compliance risks, and save business owners, such as HR managers, countless hours on data entry.
Get actionable insights with software that allows you to monitor and track attendance via real-time reporting online, acting as a single source of truth when it comes to leave and absences.
When it comes to cutting down on sick leave, it’s important to understand the reasons behind above-average absenteeism. While most people take time off for legitimate health reasons, it’s also important to rule out the possibility of sick leave abuse, or time theft. Attendance and absence management software can eliminate the guesswork from this process, as it helps managers track sickness absence and find any worrying patterns.
For employees suffering with different medical ailments, some ways a business can help to reduce sick leave include:
As for annual leave, it’s important to encourage employees to spread out their holidays across the year rather than saving them up. Taking regular breaks from work will keep their well-being and motivation levels high throughout the year. You should also be mindful of how many people are taking annual leave at the same time, to support business continuity.
Turning down holiday requests can be badly received, so it’s helpful to have a clear practice in place for accepting requests, such as ‘first come, first served’. Effective annual leave management software can help keep with transparency in relation to holiday requests and approvals.
