Employee Self Service is transforming the HR management process through cutting costs, saving money and redefining the relationship between staff and employer.
Employee Self Service truly is the way of the future. A large part of a HR department's time is spent dealing with administrative tasks and employee queries. Unless a HR solution can provide essential administrative services in an efficient and cost effective manner, organisations will struggle to compete in an increasingly demanding marketplace.
CorePortal allows employees to perform traditional HR tasks independently, at any time, from any where they can access the web, using familiar internet browser screens. CorePortal also provides managers with access to their self defined Key Performance Indicators in a visual dashboard format, which can be tailored to individual requirements and is instantly intuitive. CorePortal endeavours to empower the decision maker, providing the customised information managers need to make informed HR decisions in one easy to use interface. Core Portal provides 360 degree organisation wide visibility right from the desktop.
Using the internet as an internal communications platform, employers can give workers access to a wide range of HR related information, from their individual employment records to online payslips.
Core Employee & Manager Self Service is available for the full suite of CoreHR modules and is deployed through CorePortal, which is built on state of the art portal technology. CorePortal utilises Single Sign On functionality ensuring that employees use the same password to access their PC and all aspects of CoreHR Self Service available to them. This results in far fewer forgotten or breached passwords, as users have a single log on and in turn reduces the work load on your IT department in resetting passwords.

The Office of the Revenue Commissioners were conducting a large number of their HR functions manually, through paper based processes. Functions such as payslip distribution, overtime claims, expense submission and approval, and maintenance of bank details were all handled using paper. These manual tasks were placing a huge burden on the Revenue’s HR and payroll departments and were resulting in erroneous payments and incorrect data.
The Revenue Commissioners have been clients of Core International since 1998 and because of this long standing relationship, looked to Core for assistance in streamlining their HR process. Through consultation with the Revenue Commissioners, Core recommended that CorePortal be implemented, thus moving paper based tasks online and devolving much of the basic administration work to an employee level. In addition to the standard CorePortal functionality, Core developers designed functionality specific to the Revenue Commissioners unique individual processes. Improvements within the Revenue Commissioners are on going. Processes which are due to be automated in the near future include: Air Travel Orders, BIK, Claims for Public Holidays and Extra Attendance.
