Bad Payroll System in the Philippines and 4 More HR Challenges

In business environments, Human Resources often doesn’t get enough love. Maybe no Filipino HR professional is as tragic as The Office’s Toby Flenderson in real life. But being in charge of the needs of employees without having the proper tools to meet their own needs at work can be just as pitiful.

From doing everything manually to contending with an outdated payroll system in the Philippines, here are the most common pain points of Filipino HR staff:

Spending Too Much Time on Manual Tasks

The number one headache of HR professionals across the archipelago is manual work. A company’s lack of automation software makes every task unnecessarily tedious and attention-consuming.

Granted, you can’t set every process on autopilot. But having to prepare stuff like the workforce’s shifts and schedules from scratch can eat most of HR staff’s time.

An inefficient HR department can burden your company in more ways than one. If you want your staff to perform all of their duties without burning them out, you should help them concentrate on more important matters like dispute resolution and let the computer handle what it can automatically.

Drowning in Paperwork

Another major time waster is paper documents. Make no mistake about it, having things in black and white won’t go out of fashion any time soon. But not adopting digitalization when you should like when monitoring daily time records (DTRs) can drive down your HR team’s productivity and cost you more money than you realize.

Tracking Hybrid Workforce’s Poor Timekeeping

Speaking of DTRs, keeping tabs on the working hours of telecommuters, field personnel, and remote independent contractors continues to be a problem for many Filipino HR professionals.

Considering that work-from-home setups have become the norm post-pandemic, it’s important to invest in a solution that can simplify timekeeping for your organization. This way, you can help HR catch tardy employees and those that are slacking off.

Generating Data-Rich Reports

In light of excessive manual work and too much dependence on paper documents of many businesses in the Philippines, producing key reports with the most recent data can be a struggle for the average HR professional.

Unless you start using a human resources information system (HRIS), your HR staff will dread this part of their job.

So, what is an HRIS?

It’s an all-in-one software solution that can automate the time-consuming tasks HR professionals traditionally have to put up with on a daily basis like report generation. If you use it to create reports, you’ll be able to choose your preferred document layout, include fresh data, and automate the whole process.

Dealing With Payroll Issues

If your company is like many Filipino organizations, your HR and finance departments are probably both responsible for payroll. It only takes one of them to underperform to cause late salary deposits and payslip errors.

Payroll disputes are bad for employee morale. So if you rely heavily on your HR staff to make sure that everybody receives their salary in full and on time, you should equip them with the right tools to fulfill their end of the bargain efficiently and accurately.
