Year processing? Overwhelming workload!

The last month of the previous year and the first month of the next are definitely not the most wonderful time of the year for HR managers. The closing of the year is very important, but often time-consuming as well, which is why it is dreaded by many HR managers.

Processing the leave

An essential part of closing the financial year is the processing of the leave days. If you are still working in Excel, this may be a tough task to perform accurately and efficiently. The process has proven to take up a lot of time in such cases, while this occurs when you want things to move a little quicker!

After all, you have a lot of other work to get done. Leave is only a small part of your daily business. Even though – for you, the employees, and the financial administration – it is crucial to register leave correctly, many HR managers put it on the back burner because of other priorities. When it finally comes to closing the year, the numbers aren’t in order. That, in turn, causes stress, working overtime and an overwhelming workload.

What can be done?

Are you dealing with issues that relate to year processing? It would be beneficial to go about it in a different way from now on. It is of no use to come along the day after the fair. It is useful, however, to start making preparations for next year – preferably before the first of January. Relieve part of the pressure of year processing by registering leave requests and balance well. Normally, this aspect alone requires about half an hour per employee at the end of every year. With a leave registration system in place, it would only take you three minutes.

Conclusion: if you get it right the first time, it will not become a burden in twelve months!
