Role of HR in the Automotive Industry
The automotive industry has seen to have risen a lot over the last few years. And as the industry rises, their tasks to manage the workforce and regular HR operations also increase, which are challenging for them to handle. The most common and daily functions like running types of salary structures, managing attendance and shifts, travel reimbursements, and claims, etc., were some of the major hurdles the company experiences.

Problems Encountered
To keep the business tasks unhindered, it is essential for the Automotive industry to resolve their common HR challenges before piling them up. Here are the challenges most experienced by the industry.
Separate Attendance Methods for all Units
With more than one unit over many locations, managing attendance for all the locations and again attuning the same for every wage cycle was cumbersome and time-taking for the automotive industry.
Managing Changing Shifts
The automotive industry often has multiple shifts to attend to customers properly, and these shifts are rotating in nature. But again, creating and assigning shifts to all the workers manually was almost impossible to manage, which caused delays in ongoing work.
Manual Approval Process
When employees visit other sites or travel often, they were bound to submit attendance and travel claims via mails to HR. This information is then verified and transferred further to the finance department to complete the reimbursement cycle, which was a tedious task.
Multiple CTC Structures
Employees working with different grades have different CTC structures, which takes quite a long time for HR to manually calculate and transfer the salaries. While this was a burden to calculate salaries according to different CTCs, it consumed more time and caused delays to routines tasks.
Manual Onboarding
During onboarding the employees manually, the managers often ask them to share information such as PAN no., Aadhar no., employment history, etc., for the company records. This whole process takes a long time and becomes tiresome at many stages.
Multiple Attendance Cycle to Manage
For managers and employees, the industry has defined different working hours leading to multiple attendance cycles to manage. At times of payroll, it was a laborious task for HR to consider all the attendance cycles and calculate accurate wages manually.
