As a business owner, are you often fretting over HR tasks on top of other pressing matters? We asked Ken, Founder of 361 Degree Consultancy, to share his thoughts on why every SME owner should consider using a HR software as well as how Payboy is a reliable HR software that can help increase efficiency in managing HR matters!

Ken (Founder of 361 Degree Consultancy): Usually, SMEs require HR software for a few reasons. The number one reason is, of course, compliance (employers must issue itemised payslips to all employees covered by the Employment Act). Additionally, HR software can help save payroll processing time. Moreover, SME owners don't always have time to focus on developing their employees' skills, but talent is the most important thing for a business to do well. If the HR software can also keep track of the employees’ development as well as facilitate their performance reviews from time to time, these are definitely good features that every SME owner should consider while choosing the right HR software.
Ken: When a company uses Payboy, it basically increases efficiency. To illustrate an example in a typical SME, when an employee applies for leave, he or she will have to fill out a leave application form, ask the manager to sign it, and then the HR person will probably have to record the approved leave in an Excel spreadsheet. This leave-taking process may take half an hour if you include the time to do manual tasks such as filing. With Payboy, its Leave Management module reduces the leave application to maybe a minute or two. And the great thing is that the employees are able to check their own balance of leaves, their leave approvals, etc.
Ken: If you asked me to use one word to describe Payboy, it would definitely be reliability. Can you imagine how stressful it would be at the end of the month if your software has bugs? So reliability is of the utmost importance, and it's always our top concern.
