The Challenges of HR in the Manufacturing Industry
Managing HR functions in the manufacturing industry can be complex, especially when dealing with multiple locations and a large workforce. Common challenges include:
Managing Different HR Systems and Policies across Multiple Locations
Manufacturing companies often have different HR systems across various locations. This leads to inconsistent HR policies, which makes reconciling attendance and managing statutory compliance challenging.
Solution
Centralized HR management systems streamline policy implementation across various locations ensuring accurate attendance reconciliation, compliance, and payroll processing.

Outcome
- Centralized platform for consistent HR and payroll management across locations.
- Improves data accuracy by reducing discrepancies.
- Minimizes errors for greater operational efficiency.
Ensuring Accurate and Efficient Attendance Tracking
Accurate attendance tracking is essential, but manual methods, such as checking emails, paper timesheets, and sign-in sheets, can lead to errors. This complicates real-time tracking across different shifts and locations.
Solution
Mobile-based attendance systems with selfie-punch and geo-fencing enable the admin to get real-time clock-ins and outs of employees. Through integrated payroll and attendance, correct compensation can be ensured.

Outcome
- Automates attendance tracking and management.
- Reduces manual workload.

Streamlining Expense Management Processes
Expense management becomes complicated in manufacturing due to varying procedures at different sites. Without a centralized system, this leads to confusion and delays in employee reimbursements.
Solution

Outcome
- Features rule validation for expense submissions.
- Automatically tracks and checks submitted expenses.
- Enhances accuracy in attendance records.
Accurate Tracking Across Multiple Shifts
Shift management in manufacturing can be challenging, especially when workers rotate through multiple shifts. Traditional attendance tracking software often struggles to identify in-out shift details accurately.
Solution
Implementing an advanced shift management system allows HR to plan, manage, and schedule various shifts of employees in advance to enhance employee monitoring and ensure seamless scheduling.

Outcome
- Seamless biometric integration for accurate tracking.
- Monitors in-and-out details for workers.
