PeopleSoft Enterprise Human Resources Administer Workforce provides the foundation for your human resource management system. The data entered into the Administer Workforce business process is available to all of the Human Resources business processes as well as the other applications in the PeopleSoft Enterprise HRMS suite.
The Administer Workforce business process includes five basic steps:
Setting up the basic codes and formats needed for the business process.
Before you begin tracking worker data, it’s helpful to set up codes to help you streamline human resource processes for such areas as visas and permits, salary classifications, unions, banking, employment contracts, and checklists. Setting up these codes simplifies data entry and helps ensure that you have consistent information in records across all functions of your human resources system—from recruitment to benefits. If you’re managing a workforce in Australia, Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, The Netherlands, New Zealand, Singapore, Spain, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, or the United States, you’ll also set up any codes necessary for administering your workers in those countries.
Adding a person’s human resources record into the system.
When you bring a new person into your organization, create a record that includes this information:
Personal data, such as name, address, personal relationships, and organizational relationships, such as employee or contingent worker.
Job data, such as supervisor, department, job code, and compensation details.
Entering additional data into the record.
In addition to the data that you enter when you add a new record, the data you can track includes:
Tenure with your organization.
Prior work experience.
Company property and credit cards issued to the employee.
Business expenses.
Emergency contact information.
Visas, passports, and other identification data.
Driver's license information.
Bank accounts.
Volunteer activities.
Employee membership in unions, works councils, or labor agreements.
Country-specific information for workers in Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, The Netherlands, New Zealand, Singapore, Spain, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, or the United States.
Updating the record.
Over time, you’ll need to enter changes to a person’s human resources record, such as changes of name, address, marital status, and organizational status; promotions; transfers; and leaves of absence. You can also track employee grievances and disciplinary actions imposed on employees by your organization.
Viewing and reporting on worker data.
You can view summary information about your workers and run a variety of different reports to review and analyze your workforce.
