Singapore develops workplace wellbeing benchmark, how will your HR software help?

In today's rapidly evolving workplace landscape, fostering employee well-being is increasingly a strategic imperative for HR teams. For businesses operating in Singapore, there is also a national workplace wellbeing benchmark launched in 2024. This benchmark is a guideline for companies to ensure that their employees' physical, mental, and emotional health are adequately addressed within the workplace environment. In addition, from December 2024, tripartite guidelines will come into effect that requires all employers to have a process in place for workers to make formal requests for flexible work arrangements. As organisations in Singapore prioritise the health, happiness, and productivity of their workforce, this flexibility definitely increases the burden of management on HR teams. Software solutions like Zoho People, will be key for HR teams to automate HR workflow, to allow HR teams to focus on driving engagement and cultivating a positive company culture.

In this blog post, we'll explore how Zoho People, a comprehensive HR software solution, is able to simplify HR processes and also align seamlessly with Singapore's workplace wellbeing benchmark. Let's delve into how Zoho People can effectively support organizations in enhancing workplace wellbeing:

To provide a great working experience, you must make everyday HR operations straightforward for employees. This will also enhance the trust your employees have in your organization. Zoho People can take these operations to the next level by automating and simplifying every aspect of them. Your employees can mark their attendance through the mobile app, web app, biometric device, or even facial recognition. Similarly, they can raise their leave requests through Zoho People, and these requests can be centrally tracked and approved right away. Employees can also check their shift schedules and submit shift change requests. This will allow HR teams to automate approval workflows to make flexible work a seamless part of daily operations.

Measuring Employee Satisfaction and Well-Being

Zoho People's engagement surveys and feedback mechanisms provide HR teams with valuable insights into employee satisfaction, happiness, and overall well-being. In 2023, we rolled out Employee Engagement, an exclusive module in Zoho People that enables organizations to measure the engagement, happiness, and satisfaction levels of their employees using surveys. The module supports two types of surveys, including eNPS and annual engagement surveys. With eNPS, organizations can send out one core question that employees can rate on a scale of zero to 10. The annual engagement surveys are more elaborate, with up to 50 questions that help organizations get in-depth and extensive insights. Learn more about Employee Engagement in Zoho People.

The system will have multiple features and modules to help organizations track the goals, KRAs, competencies, and skillsets of employees, conduct self-appraisals, exchange feedback with employees, facilitate fair raises, and a lot more. With Zoho People's performance system, organizations are able to keep the entire process fair, transparent, and bias-free. Modules like goals, competencies, and skillsets provide a clear picture of an employee's performance.
