Insight 5 - Maximising Employee Experience through Shared Services

In today’s competitive business landscape, organizations are increasingly recognizing the importance of providing an exceptional employee experience. Shared services can play a crucial role in achieving this goal, offering a centralized and efficient approach to various HR functions. Let’s explore how shared services can maximize employee experience across different aspects of the employee lifecycle.

Enhancing Internal Communication and Engagement

Shared services can significantly improve internal communication and engagement by providing a centralized platform for information dissemination and employee interaction. This approach ensures that all employees, regardless of their location or department, have access to consistent and timely information.

Some key benefits of using shared services for internal communication include:

• Streamlined messaging across the organization
• Consistent branding and tone in all communications
• Real-time updates and notifications
• Improved collaboration tools for cross-functional teams

Personalising Employee Development Plans

Shared services can enable organizations to create and manage personalized development plans for employees more effectively. By centralizing data and leveraging advanced analytics, HR teams can gain insights into individual employee strengths, weaknesses, and career aspirations.

Key aspects of personalized development plans through shared services:

1. Skills gap analysis
2. Tailored learning recommendations
3. Career pathing tools
4. Performance tracking and feedback

Providing Consistent Employee Support Across Locations

One of the significant advantages of shared services is the ability to provide consistent support to employees across different locations. This ensures that all employees have access to the same level of service and resources, regardless of their geographical location or department.

Benefits of consistent employee support include:

• Standardized HR policies and procedures
• Equal access to benefits and perks
• Uniform onboarding and offboarding processes
• Consistent performance management practices

Implementing Self-Service HR Portals

Self-service HR portals are a cornerstone of modern shared services models. These portals empower employees to manage their own HR-related tasks and access information independently, leading to increased efficiency and satisfaction.

Key features of self-service HR portals:

• Personal information updates
• Leave management
• Benefits enrollment and management
• Expense reporting and reimbursement
• Access to payroll information and tax documents

By implementing these self-service options, organizations can reduce the administrative burden on HR teams while providing employees with greater control and flexibility over their HR-related tasks.
