The concern for the data security and confidentiality in the cloud has always been at the center of business conversations. However, the suspicion that this issue used to cause is dissipating as the management of many processes is done with digital tools to gain efficiency, precision and agility. Sustained business growth and competitiveness is not possible in the current context without investing in talent and for this it is necessary and essential to rely on technology.
HR teams play a critical role in the management, attraction and retention of talent, in the implementation of training and career development plans, the measurement of the work environment, employer branding, the generation of a culture that fosters commitment and a sense of belonging… To mention a few of the multiple activities that they must lead today.
It is also all the administrative management part of the payroll. Once the data protection barrier has been overcome thanks to the fact that today providers have implemented high security standards (data encryption, role-based access and regular audits), regulatory changes in payroll and tax compliance have prompted the incorporation of solutions of software that help these departments to free themselves from this most repetitive and low-value part, to focus on taking care of talent and all their experience within the company.
Payroll Management Software: Powerhouse of Productivity
As we have just pointed out, the HR department must optimize its time to dedicate itself to more strategic tasks and, of course, payroll management and design is the most susceptible to automation. The evolution of all the remuneration casuistry that the companies offer in their flexibility policy has led to a sophistication of the software. Because employee loyalty is no longer only achieved with a succulent amount.
In this sense, business management software oriented to the labor area are designed to efficiently manage all aspects related to the payment of salaries, benefits, remuneration in kind and other perceptions, as bonuses or bonuses, in addition to the base salary.
A very important detail to take into account when incorporating labor management software – beyond the automation of tasks – is that they are always kept up to date with regard to withholdings (taxes, Social Security, etc.) and agreements, which It allows companies to comply with current regulations – which are neither few nor stable over time. In this way, in addition to avoiding possible sanctions or errors, they achieve the long-awaited operational efficiency.
In line with its commitment to support the digitization of SMEs, and with the aim of easing their operational burden, Cegid has recently launched a version of its ERP, Cegid Ekon Cloudexclusively for the management of the labor area: Cegid Ekon Payroll. A solution designed to achieve maximum automation of this type of massive and complex processes, which require total reliability in their management.
Cegid Ekon Nómina is a payroll software that integrates all the necessary functionalities to automate the process of creating them (different agreements, updated CPI, seniority…), in addition to allowing direct connection with the administration (RED System, Cret@ , Contract@, Certific@2, DELTA System, telematic transmission of official models to AEA…). And, of course, being hosted in the cloud, the information is always available from anywhere: Agreements, payroll history, registrations and deregistrations, vacations, etc.
Each person is different and so is their work life. But a business lacks the necessary time to invest in the particularities of each one of them. And even if he did, he wouldn’t be free from human error. For this reason, the implementation of a payroll program brings benefits both to the human resources area –which translates into the generation of efficiency– and to the business as a whole with an increase in profitability and, consequently, an improvement in competitiveness.
