The system that gives your employees the tools to empower themselves
Premier Employee Self Service (ESS) streamlines your HR Processes by giving your employees user-friendly tools to update their personal details, apply for leave, submit claims and overtime, do performance reviews and view payslips online. It reduces admin and gives you more time to focus on the important issues – like moving your business forward.
Making leave-processing a piece of cake
Because this online module integrates with our Premier Payroll and Premier HR systems, it cuts your capturing time by allowing your employees to apply for leave online. Capturing, approving and maintaining your employees’ leave becomes a streamlined, paperless process.
It also lets you customise escalations of workflow items, reducing your company’s financial liability by improving leave management.
But just as it lets the right people in, it keeps the wrong people out
Premier ESS enforces stringent, internationally accepted standards of access control to authenticate users.
This means your data is always protected. For example, managers can access and update leave information for their department, whereas an employee sees how much leave they’ve taken and how much is left to take.
How ESS makes your employees’ lives a lot easier
With just a few clicks, you can enable or disable these handy features:
Leave processing
- Employees can view their leave balances as they appear on the payroll database and apply for leave on the system.
Online personal and family information
Your employees are able to view and update their personal information such as:
- Names and contact numbers
- Banking details
- Emergency contact details
- Statutory information such as ID number, tax number, addresses
- Details of family members, next of kin, beneficiaries, etc.
Online Payslips
Because ESS saves a history of each employee’s payslips, an employee can view all of these whenever they want to.
Expense claims
- Online claims processing: ESS automates travel reimbursements or expense claims. Your employee simply completes a form on ESS, the request is authorised, and the transaction is automatically reflected on their payslip.
- Online overtime processing: Your employees can capture overtime through the ESS system. As soon as the request has been approved, the hours are automatically reflected on your payroll. You can customise the overtime forms and allow employees to make file attachments if they need to.
- Online performance reviews: Employees can complete 360° performance and competency reviews online. Scores and comments captured will automatically reflect on the Premier HR system
