Introduction
Welcome! This guide is designed to assist you in setting up the Empress Talent module, a vital component for managing your company’s human resources. This module allows you to create, view, edit, and track essential HR data, making your everyday business operations smoother and more efficient. Let’s get started!
1. Setting Up Your Organization
Before you can start adding employee records, you’ll need to establish some foundational information. This involves creating master records for key activities. Here’s what you’ll need to set up:
- Employment Type: This refers to the status of the employees in your company such as Permanent, Temp, Contractor, Intern, etc.
- Branch: If your company has multiple offices, you’ll need to create records for each one.
- Department: This pertains to the different sections or divisions within your company such as Accounting, Sales, etc.
- Designation: This refers to the different job titles or roles within your company such as CEO, Sales Manager, etc.
- Grade: This typically refers to the levels of seniority within your company such as A, B, C, etc.
You can find more details on how to set up these master records in the setup guide under the HR Settings section.
2. Leave Setup
The next step is setting up your company’s leave policies. This involves creating:
- Leave Type: These are the different categories of leave such as Sick Leave, Travel Leave, etc.
- Holiday List: This is a list of the annual holidays for the year. These days won’t be counted in Leave Applications.
- Leave Policy: This will help you effectively track and manage Employee leaves across your company.
For a more detailed explanation of how to configure and manage leaves, refer to the Leaves guide.
3. Payroll (Salary) Setup
In Empress, salaries consist of two main components: earnings (like basic salary, company-paid expenses, etc.) and deductions (such as taxes, social security, etc.). You can easily create and assign salary structures to employees, and Empress simplifies most of the payroll processing tasks for you.
You can find more information about setting up your payroll in the Salary and Payroll guide. If you’re interested in configuring Empress to automatically calculate Income Tax deductions based on multiple Salary Slabs, refer to the Setting Up Income Tax Deduction guide.
4. Recruitment
Planning for future manpower recruitment is essential for all businesses. Empress allows you to define recruitment plans at the group company level. Subsidiary companies can create and publish job openings based on these plans, making your hiring process easier. The Staffing Plan guide provides detailed instructions on how to do this.
Remember, each time you create a new Job Opening, Empress will validate the open positions and current employment count with your existing Staffing Plan.
In conclusion, Empress Talent module provides a comprehensive solution for your HR needs, from setting up organizational structures to managing leaves, payroll, and recruitment. This efficient tool gives you full control over your human resources, enhancing your business processes. For more information, refer to the Empress user guides or contact our support team.
