Using SSHR for Workforce Sourcing and Deployment

How can I use SSHR for my workforce sourcing and deployment processes?

You can use the New Hire processes to hire applicants and to bring contingent workers to your enterprise. These processes enable you to enter data in a series of web pages and to then finally hire the applicant or contingent worker.

Can I modify these processes to suit the requirements of my enterprise

Yes. The sequence of web pages used in the New Hire processes is defined in the Workflow Builder. To modify this sequence, you can create your own version of the New Hire processes and chain together the required modules in a different sequence.

Does SSHR carry out any checks when I hire an applicant or contingent worker using the self-service interface?

As in the Professional Forms Interface, SSHR can check for any duplicate persons within the system if required. If you activate this functionality, SSHR displays a list of any possible duplicate persons.

Can I access the iRecruitment functionality using the self-service interface?

Although iRecruitment uses a self-service interface and the Oracle Applications Framework functionality, you cannot access iRecruitment directly from SSHR. To access the iRecruitment functionality, you must purchase the appropriate license.

What are the advantages to the HR Department of using SSHR?

Potential self-service activities in an HR department range from simple data entry tasks, such as updating personal and educational details, to more complex tasks, such as informing employees of their current vacation allowance and providing policy advice. With SSHR, the person making an inquiry or wanting to change their personal details can find and manage this information themselves at little administrative cost to the HR department.

How does SSHR improve the accuracy of employee data?

Employees have a vested interest in ensuring their information is accurate, for example, to ensure that their pay check is mailed to the correct address. With SSHR, employees can maintain their own data and ensure that it is correct.

How does SSHR improve a manager's access to information?

Managers using SSHR can access the information for their employees using a hierarchy tree or, if enabled, the Person Search function. Security mechanisms ensure that managers can only retrieve information for those employees to whom they have access.

In addition, the Employee Directory provides contact information for employees within the enterprise. Users can search for people using different search criteria and look up contact and organizational information.

Can I use SSHR to carry out standard HR procedures?

Yes. You can use the Manage Employment Events functionality to carry out such procedures as granting a salary increase, reassigning an employee to a new position, or terminating an employee. You can use the Workflow Builder functionality to chain different modules together to create enterprise-specific procedures.

Can workers use SSHR to apply for jobs online?

Yes. Employees and contingent workers can use the Apply for Job module to search and apply for jobs online. Search criteria includes job location and vacancy date. They can attach a resume to their job application.
