HR departments across all industries often juggle many different functions within an organization. These tasks include anything from payroll processing, ensuring regulatory compliance, employee engagement to recruiting top talent. However, with recent changes in APAC business environments as well the fluid human capital landscape in the region – putting more power in the hands of job seekers – traditional HR teams are facing increased pressure to be more efficient.

But fortunately, many digital solutions are available out there which will not only help HR managers to perform their tasks better but unlock their potential further and transform them into a strategic business partner of the organization. One provider that many businesses have turned to, for the top-of-the-line HR tech offerings is GreatDay HR. This is because the company offers the most comprehensive essentials of an HR management system optimized for mobile, thus allowing companies to manage their most valuable assets – the human workforce – on the go.

The employee-focused mobile GreatDay HR solution, which boasts 120,000 users across 80 companies in Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, and the Philippines, strives to bring the most out of each employee and offers flexible and highly-scalable deployment options. For instance, a small or midsized enterprise could acquire GreatDay HR as a standalone solution, while larger organization could deploy it as mobile employee interface for Sunfish HR SaaS cloud solution (both brands are part of DataOn).

Employee engagement and HR transformed

Thanks to increased internet connectivity and the subsequent proliferation of mobile devices, mobile solutions have slowly become the preferred way of accessing software and applications for most people. But unfortunately, enterprises are slow to evolve and catch up with that trend, and employees are often forced to depend on antiquated, legacy systems to interact with and access HR functions. However, GreatDay’s solution completely transforms how employees engage with the HR department and by extension, the organization.

Developed from scratch, specifically to cater to the mobile world of today, GreatDay HR enables employees to seamlessly manage their HR data, report attendance, request leave, view their payslips, file claims, among other things – all from their mobile devices. Further, the platform automatically sends out vital information such as requests for approval, company announcements, attendance reminders and other status updates to employees, also straight to their smartphones, enabling prompt responses and speeding up processes.

This level of mobile HR support will address one of the biggest challenges that has been plaguing employers everywhere, which is to create an engaging work environment, and by proxy therefore, an engaged workforce. Companies realize that having highly-engaged employees is an indicator that they enjoy their time at work, have better career prospects, and will add more value to their organization. GreatDay understands this and made it its mission to promote engagement via its platform.

Moreover, having developed and implemented HR tech solutions for more than 20 years to over 2000 companies across Asia, GreatDay also realizes that the key to engaging employees is providing them a channel to communicate, which is why GreatDay HR is integrated with social media-like tools to foster enhanced employee communications.

One such feature allows users or employees to share an achievement or great tasks that they performed at any time. The post will be then shared with their followers within the organization and their immediate peers, to garner likes and engagements. Employers could potentially profile the staff member based on the engagement and reward them for their excellent work.

This gamification feature could also be deployed to incentivize other employee contributions and task-completion as well to boost overall engagement and subsequently, productivity. On top of that, with provisions designed to streamline task management, activity tracking, and continuous feedback, GreatDay HR allows communications to be more structured, monitored and analyzed to yield valuable insights.

Benefits to enhance financial security

Happy employees tend to be more productive and increased productivity translates to improved company performance and growth. And thus, offering additional benefits, on top of a basic remuneration package is simply a no-brainer. However, these benefits could come at a premium price, which could create difficulties in some organizations, especially the small and medium-sized. This where GreatDay HR could really shine:

Via its Benefit feature, the platform enables companies to provide more benefit to their employees without breaking the bank. The platform allows employees to apply for a loan or shop for insurance plans via its mobile app at cheap rates thanks to the app’s collaboration with pre-approved financial and insurance providers (via no intermediaries). As financial security is one of the biggest concerns among employees in the Southeast Asia region, having a platform that integrates safe and responsible lending practices can only benefit the employee and by extension, the employer.

To put it simply, GreatDay HR is a pioneer in mobile HR tech and is already a market leader in Indonesia. If you are looking for an all-in-one, affordable, and user-friendly HR solution to increase productivity while saving time and costs, get in touch with GreatDay to request a demo.
