A Single Click, Multiple Solutions

With just a single click, users can now generate a variety of important documents. These include:

  • Confirmation of Employment Letters: These letters serve as proof of employment, verifying that an individual works at a particular company. They are often required when applying for loans, visas, rental agreements, and more.

  • Confirmation of Address Letters: These letters confirm an employee’s residential address. They are typically needed for banking services, school registrations, and other official procedures.

  • Certificates of Service: These certificates provide a record of an employee’s work history at a company, including their roles, responsibilities, and duration of service.

  • Manual Individual UI19 Forms: These forms are required by the Department of Labour for unemployment insurance claims. They detail an employee’s earnings and reason for termination.

Pioneering No-Cost HR Software

This innovative feature is a game-changer for businesses in South Africa. Not only does it streamline HR processes, but it also comes at no additional cost. This is a significant milestone, as it marks the first time such a feature is being offered by a no-cost payroll and HR software in the country.

The Impact on Businesses

The automatic generation of these documents eliminates the need for manual preparation, saving businesses valuable time and resources. It also reduces the risk of errors that can occur with manual data entry.

Furthermore, this feature enhances the overall user experience, making openHR an even more attractive choice for businesses seeking efficient and cost-effective HR solutions.

Looking Ahead

As openHR continues to innovate and lead the way in HR and payroll solutions, businesses in South Africa can look forward to more groundbreaking features that simplify processes, improve efficiency, and contribute to their success.
