Modern human resources management on the Odoo platform

Having good, capable and satisfied employees should be the goal of every employer. In most companies that is the domain of the human resources department, alongside management.

Every HR professional works with a large amount of information: personal data, contracts and much more that legislation requires must be kept on record. On top of that they should have a complete overview of every employee. HR also typically includes recruiting new employees, the appraisal process and more.

In today's blog we look at how to deal with this complex agenda and what solution exists within the Odoo ERP.

Odoo covers all key processes in one system and enables effective centralisation of data.

What advantages does Odoo offer HR?

You can track all important information by department. If necessary, you can restrict the visibility of sensitive information to HR managers only, or make other information available to all employees, such as the employee directory. You also receive notifications of every new leave request, allocation request, job application, appraisal and much more.

You can track employees' hours worked and sort them by project, client or task. Easy access to statistics lets you record and analyse timesheets as well as check the attendance of every employee. Connected accounting automatically sends out overviews based on the time spent on projects and provides real-time data.

Employees can easily submit and justify expenses. Managers can review them and approve or reject individual requests as needed. Once approved, expenses are immediately updated in Odoo Accounting.

You can also easily set up the appraisal process and calendar. You create form-based questionnaires to gather feedback from everyone in the company, from employees to managers, as well as self-assessments. You automate the whole process so that you can focus on people rather than on administration.

You create a job board to publish open positions with just a few clicks and easily review the applications received. You manage your survey channel and connect it with Odoo Surveys to create a survey questionnaire that is automatically linked to the candidate's record.

You let employees cooperate across departments, locations and Odoo modules through communication via Live Chat. They can share knowledge and best practice, follow specific people or documents, and join interest groups where they exchange expertise and support teamwork.

You inspire employees with challenges, goals and rewards. You design your own goals, define them, provide real-time feedback and tangible results. You praise the best in every team and publish recognition of employees' and whole teams' achievements.
