In global perspective, monitoring overtime, leave and change shift has been a central discussion in business world. There were series of article written in which employee pleads for appreciation and they feel valued whenever an effort has been commended.
Locally, Human Resource Management alone does the job of monitoring overtime, leave and change shift. This setting is indeed a false one. Most of the companies in the Philippines are owned by the Japanese and the American. Certainly, Filipinos encompass ¾'s of the population. Unfortunately, it is proven that most of the Filipinos relate themselves to common local connotation that is “Mamaya Na!”
Likewise, Ibiden Philippines, Inc. monitors overtime, leave and change shift through HR Department. Other departments just like QA monitors overtime, leave and change shift but not as serious as HR's monitoring. Some departments even rely with HR's update by the end of the month. Sadly, there was a delay in HR updates.
Hence, Automated OT, Leave & Change Shift Monitoring® was developed to alleviate the scenario.
Productivity
In the first place, IPI employees are unconscious of their productivity since there was no monitoring at all. This allows them to work without direction in the sense that they will just work in manner of just working.
Quality
Some departments have monitoring of overtime, leave and change shift. However, their monitoring is manual. Manual monitoring is susceptible to human errors. Thus, the quality and accuracy of computation is being sacrificed.
Cost
Since there was no monitoring of overtime, employees can render overtime on the basis of their “wants” not on the “needs of the company” for their service. This fact incurs cost.
Morale
No recognition is given to employees who were not able to file leave and change shifts per month. This hampers appreciation and employee satisfaction.
