In a recent live product demo, HCMatrix Product Manager, Mfonobong Umana, presented HCMatrix as a comprehensive, one-stop solution for business needs, especially in employee management and human capital development.

Emphasising the platform’s capabilities, Umana said: “This is the future to have all your processes automated in one single software.”

Key modules in HCMatrix include an AI chatbot, performance appraisal, recruitment, payroll, and core HR features, as well as time and attendance tracking, aiming to streamline HR processes to enhance efficiency and effectiveness.

Umana also detailed the platform’s core payroll functionalities, noting that it eliminates the hassle of payroll processing by consolidating tasks such as salary, tax, pension payments, and other statutory remittances. HCMatrix allows businesses to handle bonuses, deductions, and health insurance payments while creating and managing diverse employee groups, including permanent staff and contractors.

According to Umana, HCMatrix’s self-service module offers tools for efficient management of onboarding, leave and loan requests, asset and space allocations, and document tasks. She emphasised that the software allows for the accurate tracking of employee time, attendance, and overtime, integrating seamlessly with payroll processing and generating detailed reports on attendance patterns. This automated time and attendance feature aids HR in ensuring compliance while simplifying data management.

Performance appraisal also plays a significant role in HCMatrix. Umana explained that the system automates and streamlines performance reviews, from setting objectives to conducting evaluations, fostering collaboration among managers and team members. Advanced analytics help identify performance trends, enabling data driven decisions for employee development. Additionally, the platform’s learning and development module supports continuous employee training, enabling interaction and collaboration among trainers and employees to enhance the learning experience.

Chief Operating Officer of HCMatrix, Ozioma Ajaraonye, elaborated on the system’s benefits, noting that HCMatrix significantly improves operational efficiency through automation across various HR functions. She highlighted how the platform reduces time and resources spent on tasks like recruitment, payroll processing, and on-boarding by digitising and streamlining them. Automation not only reduces errors but also mitigates compliance risks by ensuring adherence to labor laws through accurate record keeping and automatic audit trails.

Ajaraonye emphasised that HCMatrix enables improved decision making with its data-driven insights, offering centralised, real time access to accurate employee data for strategic HR planning. With advanced analytics, the system tracks HR metrics, such as employee turnover and absenteeism, and applies predictive analytics to forecast workforce needs and assess employee potential. HCMatrix also assists in workforce diversity, regulatory compliance, and risk management by tracking diversity metrics and ensuring adherence to health, safety, and regulatory standards.
