One-stop HR platform StaffAny streamlines admin tasks

The platform reduces work dedicated to scheduling and time tracking.

Administrators and human resources managers often do timesheet consolidation manually, which can cause a lot of errors and headaches for them at the end of every month. To solve this pain point, software-as-a-service StaffAny offers a platform that automates all of these tasks.

StaffAny claims to help business owners reduce work dedicated to scheduling and time tracking, and reduce the cost of operations by minimising time theft and overtime spend. In addition to managing hourly workers, StaffAny also automates end-of-month timesheet consolidations.

This is especially helpful for businesses who have workers paid on an hourly basis. “Operational processes like scheduling and timesheet management were painful, prone to errors and it was hard to better the performance of this hourly workforce,” said Eugene Ng, co-founder and head of growth at StaffAny.

Employees can download the app and use the platform to clock-in, clock-out and submit requests for leave. Workers will receive notifications when there are changes with their schedules, as well as reminders when their shifts are coming up.

The platform allows HR managers to track employees on leave, and which part timers are available in real time. It can also manage overtime and hours to stay in compliance with labour law requirements.

At the end of every month, StaffAny will be the one to compute the empoyee’s salaries based on the number of hours they worked.

In August 2019, the company raised $1m in a seed funding round led by FreakOut Holdings. They also had angel investors such as HRtech Niwa Capital CEO Kenji Niwa and live chat software company Zopim; as well as co-founders Lim Qing Ru, Kwok Yang Bin and Royston Tay.

Ng stated that they will use the proceeds to further strengthen their products.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
