Save loads of time with 10-minute onboarding process
The onboarding process for MRO & Associates was stressful in the past with difficulty in centralizing all data in one place. Recording new hires’ information was done manually through email and Google form.
Akshay explains:
Now we have all these automated because of Grove HR and it is all based in one single location.
With Grove HR, the major challenges faced by the MRO & Associates HR team were solved. They can now complete the onboarding process within 10 minutes which used to take 1-3 days due to many locations. So, Grove HR has been of great assistance in saving a lot of time.
Boost efficiency in employee data management
Before using Grove HR, they engaged Google Sheets to store and track employee’s data. However, it was proved not to be the ideal option for data management since data is not always available for everyone.
Grove HR employee self-service is utilized to allow employees to input their own data which successfully helps solve these challenges.
Get things done anywhere with Grove HR mobile app
Akshay expounds: "We can do most of the things through a mobile app"
As all employees in MRO & Associates are using the mobile app for clocking in/out, the HR team can now easily track their working hours and prevent time attendance fraud.
The team also uses the mobile app to clear off HR tasks, particularly tracking the employee's onboarding tasks and approving leaves, on the go. For employees, it helps them instantly access what they need including the company directory and personal records.
Work seamlessly in one place with Grove HR
