Why we are the World’s First Employment Operating System
What is an Employment Operating System
Employment Hero is the world’s first Employment Operating System because it provides a unified experience, eliminating fragmented workflows and the need for multiple HCM (Human Capital Management) systems.
Users don’t rely on third-party integrations or multiple software solutions of a traditional HR tech stack to perform the same level of employment management. Instead, Employment Hero integrates the entire employment lifecycle like talent acquisition, onboarding, performance management, and development within a single platform, consistently adding new building blocks to expand the ability to centralise more HCM tasks into one consolidated system.
Companies use one interface and one data foundation, all provided by us. It’s not just another HRIS (Human Resource Information System), but an Employment Operating System because:
- Foundation and Resource Management
- Just as an OS manages hardware resources, Employment Hero manages “employment resources”: data, processes, and workflows related to the employee lifecycle.
- It creates a foundational platform where all employee-related activities are organised and controlled.
- Unified Interface and User Experience
- An OS provides a central interface for interacting with the computer. Similarly, Employment Hero offers a single, unified interface for managing all aspects of employment.
- This eliminates the need to navigate multiple, disparate systems, creating a seamless and consistent user experience.
- Enabling Software Functionality (Within its Domain):
- An OS provides services that enable applications to run. Employment Hero provides services that enable efficient employment management, such as talent acquisition, onboarding, and performance tracking.
- The software provides all the needed tools to complete all the tasks related to employment inside of its own environment.
- Proprietary and Self-Contained:
- Operating systems are self-contained. They do not depend on other systems to operate. The software solution being described, similarly, does not depend on other software solutions to operate.
- Extending to Pre-Employment Management:
- Just as an OS manages the system from startup, Employment Hero, with its proprietary SmartMatch talent marketplace, starts managing the employment process even before a candidate is formally hired. This extends its role as a central operating system to encompass the very beginning of the employment journey.
