Many businesses are yet to adapt to a self-service portal. There are many small tasks that can pile up on the HR manager on a daily basis. We have had many conversations with various HR managers of different industries and we have found something interesting.

Many HR managers are in favor of the self-service portals because they will allow them to focus on more important tasks rather than updating a few data of all company employees. Let us get into the detail of an ESS portal.

What is an ESS Portal?

ESS stands for Employee Self-Service. These portals basically allow certain tasks related to human resources. The term “self-service” is because these tools are not just for the HR manager, they are for every employee. It helps the HR department to use their focus more efficiently on other work. If you are an employee of ups then you can log in using upsers com login.

Ultimately this allows employees to perform certain daily/weekly/monthly tasks on the portal themselves. These tasks could be entering their time in and out, updating their personal information, updating their daily work, requesting leaves, etc.

All such tasks were otherwise handled by the HR department, which easily increases their workload especially if the company has a large number of employees.

Top 8 ESS Portals For Every Business

Employee self-service tools can be crucial for any business. Such tools are widely available on the market. In this article, we will highlight the 8 best tools that can boost business efficiency.

Every tool can not be the same, some tools allow certain tasks which others don’t. On the basis of that here are our top 5 ESS portals.

  1. SAP SuccessFactors
  2. Oracle HCM Cloud
  3. ADP
  4. HR Cloud
  5. Monday.com
  6. BambooHR
  7. UltiPro
  8. Sapling

Best Features of an ESS Portal

Companies tend to select a portal that solves their problems and helps their employees to be more efficient. Some portals are very easy to use, and some are complicated. But we are here to list out the features that can be in an ESS portal to make life much easier for your employees.

  • You can access the portal 24×7.
  • You can request your leaves.
  • You can check your attendance and enter time in/outs.
  • You can update your personal information at any time.
  • You can access company information like upcoming events, holiday list, etc.
  • Your salary information will also be available

All such features and more can keep track of your employees and their important data, all in one place.

How does an ESS Portal Benefit a Business?

Now coming on to highlighting a few reasons why a company should get an ESS portal for their employees. Here are some benefits are from the company perspective:

1. Centralized Information System

All information in one place could do good for all employees. Easy access to all employees will not allow them to spend time searching for data. There will be transparency for information like company events and highlights and holiday lists.

At the same time privacy for all employees when it comes to information like personal data and salary data. It will also benefit new employees with their queries about the company.

2. Cost-effective

The ESS tool can prove to be a cost-effective decision, based on how many HR personal tasks it can cover. The HR department spends too much time inputting new data from employees and regularly updating it.

You can direct your HR personnel to more effective tasks instead. If every employee is taking the responsibility to enter his or her information, it will also save time and can save you money.

3. Accurate Information Tracking

These ESS portals give companies the huge benefit of tracking accurate information for all employees. Information like employee salary, number of leaves, attendance, etc can be tracked at any given moment. This also saves the time of an HR personnel and deducts any possibility of a human error as well.

4. Ease of Administrative Work

Manual work would increase if an HR personnel is responsible to track all employee-related information like time in and out, tracking their work, Tracking their monthly performance, etc.

All such work could be done with more efficiency if every employee is responsible to track all these data on their own in the ESS portal.

5. Better Employee Engagement

These portals can help employees complete their tasks in a more effective and efficient way. It eliminates multiple calls to the HR department and allows them to input information with ease.

A company can engage its employees in such an easy manner. Employees are also allowed to access personal and professional information that improves employee satisfaction and experience.

Conclusion

You would need to choose the right ESS portal for your business which would depend on a few things. It depends on the nature of your business, the size of your business, and the requirements you have. Before choosing a portal, it is always recommended to compare a few.
