Web Based ESS
Web Based Employee Self Service
Most of
the companies nowadays see the HRIS is a good investment to implement in the
company because it helps a lot in managing the information in the company. For
big company on well establish in Malaysia, they are starting to use this system
in the company but some cannot afford to implement it because of the cost of
it. Even though it is costly investment but the outcome of usage is positive.
By combine it with technology and organization change, employee now can access
or interact directly with their employment data. This technology system is so
call employee self service (ESS). Now employee can review their information and
inquire information in or a
place far from workplace. It is accessible whenever it is convenient to the
employee or employer wants to. It is cutting edge system that helps HR
personnel and employee itself to cut short the long process of inquire the
information. ESS is a solution that empowers employees and employer to
directly access their information by using internet. One of the most common HRIS systems that have started company to eye on
implement it in the organization is the Systems Applications
and Products (SAP). ‘The original SAP idea was to provide
customers with the ability to interact with a common corporate database for a
comprehensive range of applications. Gradually, the applications have been
assembled and today many corporations, including IBM and Microsoft, are using SAP products to run their own businesses.’
The feature that can be
used in the ESS can be break down with all HR functions into 4 basic

My practical experience use
Employee Self Service (ESS) to manage they information in online. Employer and
Employee can excess the system everywhere at anytime they want to look, update
and request leave. From my observation, the system is user-friendly and easy to
use and HRIS system helps to manage employee account in the company.
HRIS System & Architecture
HRIS
System
Technology has become something that we need to use
and it is usefully for those who are using it. Like HRIS, its help both part,
company and individual employee help to assess their information and also to
know what are happening around the company. What is exactly HRIS??, From what
I’ve learn and read, HRIS combine the two main factor in the system that help
the organization to ease their process. The two components are the Human
Resource Management (HRM) and Information Technology (IT). These combinations
help to create a good information system that will act as medium to solve
management problems. This software or online solution function help to
management or employee to keep track their employment information. HRIS also
help human resource manager to gather, organize, store, update and retrieve the
information needed for the management of employee. It’s also functions as for the data entry, data tracking, and data
information needs for the Human Resources personnel to work with payroll,
management, and accounting functions within a business. As in graphic,
currently Human Resource Management System compress with:
System Architecture
System architecture is
all about the plan on how the data can to be transfer or access in every view
in World Wide Web. It is a structure that will show whether it is a direct
connection to the data or it has to go through a several procedure in order to
get the information that is requested. The basic architecture that is used in
the HR system is the Standalone System Model, Data Warehouse Model and Single
Integrated System Model.
·
Standalone
System Model does not connect to one and other for in architecture. There is
only 1 warehouse (main place of information store) where everyone needs to go
to the place to get the information. It is an independent system, for example:
mail, Fax, phones call etc.
Data
Warehouse Model works when the entire data mart, where all the data store in
different regional or place, connected or link to 1 main warehouse that makes
help makes the data to move around easily. All data that were store in the both
data mart and warehouse operate or run with the same format, version or
software system.
·
Single
Integrated System Model is a little bit different with the other system. This
system model depend the HQ that hold all information that need to update the
data for all subsidiary company to retrieve the data. The system can be use worldwide
and it offer with all suitable language that would make it easier to
interpreted the information receive.
HR Performance Management
Creating a professional employee need a lot of time consuming
and a lot of costly training need to give to the employee so that they can
perform at the best skill and knowledge. By having a system that can monitor
the performance of the employee, it helps HR manager to keep track the need of
their employee. Using this system, HR personnel can understand the cost, capabilities,
capacity, and quality of employee workforce. They can also make a platform to
discuss employee performance and give feedback across your entire organization
and give reward for their performance fairly.
As an
employer, they need to identify their worker competent whether they skill are
off track. An effective performance enhancement system is depending on how the
manager manages their employer talent management programs. By doing so, it will
help to determine the status of employee performance. They can follow the 4’D’
process to determine it,
Defining – Creating precise and concise position profiles and expert models that align talent with clearly defined expectations, role clarity, along with defined responsibilities, and accountability, and levels of authority.
Deployment – Set a right people to do the job with the right tools and right training.
Development – Give a chance to the employee to perform and polish their develop human talent so that they can perform at their best and make sure their KSA is align with the organization culture, goal and development needs.
When making the
performance balance with the organization goal, the most crucial component need
to watch and take a good care is the relationship between supervisor and
employee. When both are connected, problem of communication breakdown won’t
occur. Why is communication and relationship related with performance
management?. In order to make the employee to have a high performance, these
two item would help them clearly understand the path what should they do. On
making performance standards which are the basis for appraising employee
performance, manager need to identify and compare the employee performance with
mutually understood expectations. Therefore, this good basis of making the
employee to performance would help the employee and also manager to underline
the standard that they need to perform and also it will polish they talent that
is needed in the work place. The system of HR performance management will link
to all staff in the organization and HR personnel could reach and understand
more about the employee by the fingertips
