In the world of Human Resources (HR), efficiency and simplicity are key. The process of onboarding new employees, in particular, can be time-consuming and complex. However, with the advent of HR software like openHR, these processes are becoming increasingly streamlined. One of openHR’s latest features - the ability to print a blank employee information sheet - is a game-changer in the realm of employee onboarding.
The openHR Advantage
openHR has always been at the forefront of HR solutions, providing user-friendly interfaces and comprehensive features that cover all aspects of HR management. The newly added feature of printing a blank employee information sheet is no exception. This feature simplifies the process of gathering necessary information from new hires, making it a seamless part of the onboarding process.
A Unique Approach to Employee Information
What sets openHR’s information sheet apart is its attention to detail. In addition to the standard fields such as name, address, and contact information, the form includes fields for clothing and shoe sizes. This might seem unusual at first glance, but it’s a thoughtful addition that caters to a wide range of businesses.
Many employers, especially those in the restaurant, retail, and industrial sectors, are required to provide uniforms or specific clothing to their employees. Having this information readily available on the employee information sheet simplifies the process of ordering the correct sizes for staff uniforms and overalls.
The Impact on Businesses
This feature is more than just a convenience; it’s a strategic tool that can save businesses time and resources. By including clothing and shoe size fields in the employee information sheet, openHR eliminates the need for separate forms or processes to collect this information. This means less paperwork, fewer errors, and a smoother onboarding process overall.
Moreover, having this information readily available can expedite the process of providing uniforms to new hires, ensuring they have everything they need from day one. This not only improves the efficiency of the onboarding process but also enhances the new hire’s experience, making them feel prepared and welcomed.
Conclusion
openHR’s new feature of printing a blank employee information sheet is a testament to our commitment to providing comprehensive and thoughtful HR solutions. By including unique fields such as clothing and shoe sizes, openHR is catering to the needs of a diverse range of businesses and streamlining the onboarding process in ways that few other HR software solutions have considered. It’s innovations like these that make openHR a leader in the HR software industry.
Remember, efficient onboarding is more than just a good business practice; it’s an investment in your employees’ success and, ultimately, the success of your business. With openHR, you’re one step closer to achieving that goal.

Why Payslips Matter
Payslips are far more than just a piece of paper detailing your pay. They are a record of your hard work and a transparent breakdown of how your earnings are calculated. In South Africa, these documents ensure that employees are well-informed about what they earn and any deductions made—providing a clear, defensible record in case any discrepancies arise. This transparency is central to maintaining trust within the employer–employee relationship and is a legal requirement under the Basic Conditions of Employment Act (BCEA).
