Managing Employee Attendance While Working-From-Home

In the IT sector, the COVID-19 pandemic has introduced significant challenges for companies, particularly for HR teams managing remote work. One of the critical hurdles is maintaining employee engagement and effectively managing attendance for those working from home. Ensuring employees stay motivated during extended lockdowns requires creativity and diligence from HR departments. Additionally, establishing a clear distinction between leave and work-from-home days is essential for accurate payroll processing.PeopleHub, an HR Payroll and Employee Self-serve SuiteApp by Tvarana, has a unique feature that enables HR teams to efficiently record attendance of work-from-home employees, cutting down on time taken to verify through other tools or applications. The direct integration of leave and attendance management not only streamlines the entire payroll process, but also increases accuracy and eliminates human error. Reporting managers can keep track of employee attendance through PeopleHub’s easy-to-use interface. The employee self-serve portal boosts engagement and motivation with rewards badges, newsletters and company updates. There is also an added benefit of building accountability through the regular practice of logging in and marking attendance.
