About International Health Partners

International Health Partners needed a clearer and more manageable way to keep important HR information up to date.

Before using Evalu-8 HR, key data such as absence and leave was not always current. Managers also had access to information through spreadsheets, which made it harder to maintain a simple and consistent process.

Annual leave management was particularly cumbersome because each employee had their own annual leave spreadsheet.

Evalu-8 HR gave International Health Partners a practical first HRIS that suited the needs of a smaller organisation. The team liked the intuitive layout, useful functionality, forms capability, reasonable cost, and the fact they did not have to be tied into a long contract.

LEAVE AND ABSENCE MANAGEMENT

Making annual leave easier to book and manage

Before using Evalu-8 HR, International Health Partners managed key HR information through spreadsheets. This included absence and leave data, which was not always up to date.

Annual leave was especially cumbersome because each employee had their own annual leave spreadsheet. This made the process harder to manage, harder to keep current, and less straightforward for the team.

With Evalu-8 HR, employees have a simpler way to book annual leave, while the organisation has a clearer way to manage leave and absence information in one place.

This has helped International Health Partners move away from separate spreadsheets and make everyday leave management easier for employees, managers, and administrators.

“Certain data, for example absence and leave, was not always up to date. Each employee having an annual leave spreadsheet made the process cumbersome.”

A SMOOTHER APPRAISAL PROCESS

Replacing Word forms with a more manageable appraisal process

International Health Partners uses Evalu-8 HR’s evaluations functionality for mid-year and annual appraisals.

Previously, the organisation used a Word form for these appraisal processes. This made it harder to manage updates, track progress, and keep the process moving consistently.

With evaluations in Evalu-8 HR, line managers can update and add comments to the form more easily during performance management processes.

From an admin point of view, the team can also view progress and chase outstanding actions where required.

“It has proven very useful for line managers to easily update and add comments to the form during performance management processes and, from an admin point of view, we can view progress and chase if required.”

THE OUTCOME

HR software that makes everyday people processes easier to manage

Evalu-8 HR has helped International Health Partners move away from cumbersome spreadsheet-based HR processes.

Leave and absence information can be managed more clearly. Employees can book annual leave more easily. Employee documents can be uploaded and shared with staff. Reports are helpful for reviewing HR information.

The evaluations functionality has also made mid-year and annual appraisals smoother, giving line managers a better way to update forms and add comments, while giving administrators visibility of progress.

For International Health Partners, the value of Evalu-8 HR lies in having a system that is intuitive, practical, and suited to a smaller organisation using an HRIS for the first time.

“It’s made the process smoother and less onerous than it previously was.”
