Another key objective is to cut down the duration of payroll processing by 20% which involves implementing a fully automated payroll system and training staff on efficient payroll methods. Additionally, some of the payroll work could be outsourced to a reliable company to further decrease processing time.
The third objective is to minimize errors by introducing a new payroll software. The anticipated results are to reduce miscalculations by 15%. To ensure optimal performance, the software will be regularly monitored, assessed, and if efficient, implemented. This includes training the Human Resources team on how to effectively use this new tool.
Each of these objectives consist of initiatives that would be implemented to reach the set goals. For instance, sourcing relevant training programs, implementing an automated payroll system, and training the HR team on new payroll software fall under the initiatives set by this OKR.
