Are you a restaurant owner or manager looking to simplify your HR operations? If so, employee self-service solutions might be the answer you're looking for. With an employee self-service (ESS) platform, your restaurant staff can take control of their schedules, access payroll information, update employment documents, and perform other tasks that are traditionally done manually by the HR department.
By streamlining your processes with this technology, you can create a more engaged and satisfied workforce, ultimately boosting your bottom line. In this article, we'll explore some important things to know about modern HR technology in the hospitality industry.
Our employee self-service portal is an online platform where restaurant employees can access secure, permission-based personal information and carry out basic HR tasks independently. The waitstaff, dishwashers, busboys, line cooks, and chefs can all access information and carry out tasks on their own time through the portal.
Your workers can check their schedules, request time off, and update their personal information on the platform. Many of the administrative tasks your HR staff already handle can be carried out by the employees, saving valuable company time.
Employees in nearly every field these days expect a technology-forward experience at work. That includes the hospitality industry.
An Employee Self-Service (ESS) system is crucial if you want to attract and retain top talent. Providing employees with the ability to access and manage their information on their own schedule makes them feel empowered. Allowing them to complete tasks without having to pick up the phone to call the HR department is a significant benefit for both employees and HR staff.
Implementing an ESS system in your restaurant can help streamline processes and set you apart from others in the industry. This platform can significantly reduce the administrative burden on your HR team, giving them more time and energy to focus on making your hospitality business a leader in the industry.
Your workers can access our employee self-service portal online 24/7. It is a secure system where employees' private and personal information is stored. Customizable admin permissions can be set within the system so that some functions will remain solely in the realm of the HR department. Intelligent search and filter features allow HR to access specific employee data when needed.
The system allows employees to manage their data when it is most convenient for them. If they move to a new address or their contact information changes, they can update that through the portal. If they get married, divorced, or add or subtract a dependent from their household, they can do that too.
Payroll and withholding are automatically updated in the ESS, so the HR department doesn't have to lift a finger. Employees can also access their work schedules, request time off, and carry out other tasks on the ESS.
Our portal is also optimized for mobile, for added convenience. Employees can log on with an Android or iOS device anytime to make changes. Plus, if you ever need tech support for the ESS, you can always call us and expect to speak to a real person.
Paper document systems for managing employees' confidential information are vulnerable. Many HR departments that still rely on paper-only systems are out of regulatory compliance regarding data. Payday Payroll's ESS for restaurants keeps employee data safe and keeps your restaurant in compliance.
HR departments that don't have a self-service platform spend a tremendous amount of time on repetitive administrative tasks. With an ESS, employees can update their information anytime without involving HR. This is especially important if you run multiple restaurants in a chain or different cities or neighborhoods.
It's estimated that as many as one-third of businesses are out of regulatory compliance regarding the accuracy of employee data. This is a definite weakness of paper-only systems in which restaurant employees cannot access their data. When employees can access their W2s, update their personal payroll information, and review or download paystubs, accuracy in the system increases. Compliance problems become a thing of the past, and employees feel empowered using an ESS portal.
Payday Payroll's employee self-service portal can revolutionize the operations of your restaurant or hospitality business. Employees love the access and control that the system gives them, and your HR department will thank you. Contact us at Payday Payroll today to schedule a demo of our ESS platform.
