Struggling to measure your employees’ time and attendance during Covid?

Evalu-8 HR and health and safety software will save you time and effort so you can get on with other things and it will help you keep your staff safe.

Why is measuring time and attendance so important to your business?

Because it provides tangible numbers that can support the decisions you as a business leader need to make.

Need to measure the number of hours available for your workforce?

This could be especially relevant during Covid where your staff may be working reduced hours.

Put together a shift rota in three mouse clicks. Distribute it to your employees with a fourth. View the cost of the shift to ensure you operate within budget. Employees can view their shift on any device, at any time.

Resource booking will keep your staff safe by ensuring social distancing rules are adhered to.

Reduce capacity of the workspace, then invite employees to book a desk or space. Once capacity is reached, no one else will be able to book.

Track your employees’ location

Create statuses such as “working from home”, or “working at X location” and ask your staff to declare their location every day. This will prove useful if one of your staff members contracts Covid, because you will easily be able to track who they came into contact with that day.

Touchless clocking in and out will keep your staff safe

Your staff can clock in and out at the touch or click of a button on any device, even remotely, so you can track start and finish times. Or employees can scan their system generated ID card using a QR code. One trend we are seeing in remote working staff, is they are working longer hours without enough break times. You can track and deal with this using our software. It can also help manage flexible working patterns.

Automatically generate timesheets based on clocking in and out activity

Link these to the payroll report. Or use the automatically generated payroll report, which can be linked to your payroll software via API or simply exported to CSV to send to your payroll provider.

Absence management reporting

Use our comprehensive leave, sickness, lateness and other absence reports to spot (and respond to) emerging trends. Objectively manage absence using the Bradford factor scoring system.

An appraisal process is a powerful business tool

An appraisal process is a powerful business tool

We are all busy working hard, striving to make our businesses more successful; but here’s why it is beneficial to make time to appraise your employees’ performance. Having a formal appraisal process:

Helps improve your company image.

Allows you to clarify your employee’s role and your expectations of them, ensuring they are aligned with your business objectives and they understand what they contribute to your organisation.

Provides an objective and consistent record of your employee’s performance over time.

Fairly, measures the success of your employees’ performance against each other objectively and consistently.

Highlights employee’s strengths and weaknesses in an objective format. Weaknesses once identified can be coached and trained to help your employees perform better.

Objectively identifies weaker staff who are unable to improve their performance even with training.

Is a way to ensure that all your employees are pulling in the same direction and all working at their best for your organisation.

Allows you to reassess targets, making sure they are realistic and achievable (for instance, if your business has changed due to Covid you may need to increase or decrease a target or KPI). You are also providing a structured process for your employee to raise concerns about their role and your expectations of them.

Enables you to identify and nurture your high performers. An appraisal is a time where you can help them plan their career path with your organisation and advise them on how to achieve promotion, so that you retain their skills.

Provides a formal route to reward success.

Motivates employees to work even harder by making them feel valued. An appraisal is a good opportunity to genuinely praise your employees for their hard work and successes, which can really boost their confidence and performance.

Enhances communication between you and your staff. You are setting aside a time for a 1:1 with your staff where you can focus on what they have to say. This is important for all employees but can especially be beneficial for remote workers.

Helps build relationships with your employees.

Boosts employee engagement and sense of involvement. Who knows what previously unknown skills, talent and desire for progression you could unleash and nurture as a result, strengthening your succession planning process?
