Significant Challenges Faced by the Industry
While upgrading and customizing their products for the common people, IT industries were also facing the challenges of time-consuming and tiresome HR activities. Here are the prominent challenges that the IT industry experiences in its daily routine.
Managing Flexible Working Hours
In any IT industry, the developers, designers, and other employees have flexible working hours based on their tasks. This led to a considerable amount of time for managers and HR to gather attendance punch and reconcile the data for the salary processing.
Tracking Employees’ Time and Tasks
Any IT industry has many ongoing projects according to client requirements to accomplish. It was manually challenging and cumbersome for every individual team/manager to maintain the record of ongoing and completed tasks and time taken for the same.
Managing Information of New Recruits
During the manual onboarding process, HR has to spend a significant amount of time collecting employee information and documents. Also, they used to store all such information in either pile of papers or excel sheets, which was less secure and tiresome to maintain.
Measuring Employees’ Performance
It is essential for the industry to measure every employees’ performance on a regular basis. Managers used to manually create objectives and targets for their team and measure them regularly. Also, it was tiresome for them to store and update performance data in papers or excel sheets.
Lack of Engagement in Workforce
In the era of COVID, isolation of employees and distribution of workplaces was increasing at a greater speed, which led to a reduction in genuine interaction between the workforce. It was also difficult for managers to share any updates while working remotely.
Managing Attendance Manually
During the COVID pandemic, it was essential for the industry to implement an attendance solution to eliminate the risk of contamination for employees. Also, they needed a simpler and faster method to collect the attendance of traveling employees without any manual efforts.
