Over the past few years, the relationship that employees have with their work environment has changed. Working from a cubicle has stayed in the last decade, as mental and physical health has become a priority for many. From receiving your salary in cryptocurrencies, to working from shared coworking spaces – one thing has remained a constant: security. When it comes to picking a new job, according to a study at Harvard University, most future employees prioritise flexibility and diversity. Yet those priorities come after the very basic needs of every employee – to be paid on time, and to be respected & valued. A great part of these needs are supposed to be met by the HR department of a company. Building a trustworthy and secure environment for the employee starts before the first personal contact. The language, the information, the images that the HR department sends out during the talent search process is just as important as every step after it. Prior to interviews and during such, an HR representative must be fully focused on the potential employee, in order to understand if it is a right match. Afterall, the employees are the greatest assets – thus much attention must be put into finding the right candidates. As it is known, such processes can take quite a long time, as well as be financially costly. Nonetheless there are ways to tackle such problems. The solution, as often as it is – efficient work allocation.
Depending on the size of your company, you might have a relatively rich HR department, or a smaller one. Yet, the size of it doesn’t matter. In both cases an HR department will have its hands full, as it is responsible for a multitude of critically important tasks. From recruiting to firing, compensation and benefits, local laws, employee productivity and retention – amongst many others. An HR department is the bridge between the company and its employees. It is important to not overload the bridge with tasks that are time and energy consuming – yet do not bring much value. Such tasks include documentation filling and payroll tasks. These processes can be done more efficiently through the use of digital tools and automation.

Designed to offload monotonous work from your ledger, they create space for tasks which bring value to your company and your employees. Through trusting Sb with the payroll processes of your company, you are guaranteed an on-time and precise payment to your employees. Leaving them with a sense of security and stability. One of the top reasons for workplace mistrust and employee turnover is late and incorrect compensation. The greatest value that comes with outsourcing HR and payroll needs is the efficiency of the processes that creates space for allocating time towards tasks that generate value. Activities such as creative projects focused on employee-company bonding, on education and growth. As well as improving the working conditions which could lead to a more productive workforce. Most importantly greater dedication will be given to the process of attracting and selecting new talents.
Modern research has shown that the current recruitment processes continuously evolve. From what used to be choosing from a pool of unemployed job-seekers, now is attaining talents that are not looking to change jobs. Most new employees are approached by HR representatives that offer a better career opportunity than the current one they hold; or so it could seem. This indicates that enterprises must create an environment for the employees, which prevents such opportunities of loss. An environment which is focused on giving value to their employees, rather than utilising them for company value. These tasks must be at the core focus of the HR department. With the additional time that will be created through the automation of specific tasks, the HR can come up with innovative and creative solutions to retain their employees even further. Last but not least, the HR department is the feeding hand that also must be fed. Through innovative digital and outsourcing solutions, the HR representatives will be given an opportunity to have their hands full with rather important and creative tasks, which will bring them much satisfaction. Thus generating motivation and a contentment with their profession. Indisputably, outsourcing and digitalizing of HR & payroll, as well as other departments, can act as an anchor in the long-term success of your company.
