Take control of your own HR tasks
No more waiting for HR to check your leave balance or chasing down your latest payslip. Employee Self-Service (ESS) puts everyday HR tasks directly in your hands, giving you instant access to the information you need and the ability to take action yourself.
What is Employee Self-Service?
Employee Self-Service is a system that allows employees to handle routine HR tasks independently through a digital platform. Instead of submitting paper forms or emailing HR for every request, you can manage things like leave applications, expense claims, and personal information updates on your own.
In Officaid, the Me module is your Employee Self-Service hub. It gives you a central place to:
- View and update your personal information
- Apply for leave and track your balances
- Submit expense claims and monitor their status
- Access your payslips and salary history
Benefits for You
Employee Self-Service makes your work life easier in several ways:
- Instant Access to your information anytime, without waiting for HR to respond.
- Transparency into your leave balances, claim statuses, and pay breakdown.
- Convenience to submit requests from anywhere, not just the office.
- Accuracy since you control your own information updates.
- History of all your requests and transactions in one place.
What You Can Do vs What HR Handles
Self-service empowers you to manage personal tasks, while HR retains control over employment-related matters:
You can manage:
- Personal contact information (email, phone)
- Leave applications and viewing balances
- Expense claim submissions
- Viewing your payslips and salary history
- Changing your password
HR manages:
- Employment details (job title, department, grade)
- Salary and compensation changes
- Leave entitlements and policies
- Approving or rejecting requests
- Statutory information and compliance data
