The human resources department is the beating heart of any organization, responsible for everything from hiring and payroll to keeping up with complex regulations. Yet, many businesses still struggle with outdated, manual processes that lead to endless paperwork, costly errors, and wasted time. This is where Saral Pro steps in, offering a powerful suite of HR software solutions designed to transform HR management from a complex administrative burden into a streamlined, strategic function. Saral Pro’s offering, known as Saral HRM, is a comprehensive, cloud-based platform built to simplify, automate, and centralize every aspect of the employee lifecycle, ensuring businesses of all sizes—from dynamic SMBs to large enterprises and specialized consultancies—can operate with unmatched efficiency and total compliance.
Managing a workforce, particularly in a region with dynamic labor and tax laws like India, is inherently complex. HR teams traditionally spend an inordinate amount of time on repetitive, high-volume tasks: calculating salaries, deducting taxes, tracking leave balances, and ensuring every single legal requirement—from PF and ESI to TDS and PT—is met perfectly. This manual effort is not only time-consuming but highly prone to human error, which can lead to significant financial penalties, employee dissatisfaction, and a loss of focus on strategic growth initiatives. Saral Pro's HR software solutions directly address this core challenge by offering an integrated HR software solution that automates these workflows, centralizes all employee data, and guarantees continuous statutory compliance.
Saral HRM is more than just a collection of tools; it is a unified Human Resource Management System (HRMS) that encompasses the entire spectrum of HR functions. The platform is engineered to be web-based, providing access and functionality from anywhere, empowering remote workforces and multi-location operations. It also offers a robust mobile app (formerly Pro ESS), ensuring employees and managers can manage critical HR tasks on the go.
The architecture of Saral Pro’s HR software solutions is built around core modules that deliver end-to-end automation:
Payroll is perhaps the most critical and detail-oriented function in HR. Saral HRM takes the pain out of this process, promising payroll on autopilot.
Automated and Accurate Calculations: The system automatically handles complex calculations for salaries, bonuses, deductions, and taxes with complete accuracy. This eliminates the risk of manual errors and ensures consistent payouts every cycle.
Guaranteed Statutory Compliance: This is a major differentiator. Saral HRM is meticulously designed to be fully compliant with Indian labour laws, supporting calculations and filings for PF (Provident Fund), ESI (Employee State Insurance), PT (Professional Tax), LWF (Labour Welfare Fund), and TDS (Tax Deducted at Source). It provides regular statutory updates, ensuring the software is always in line with the latest government notifications.
Simplified Taxation and Filings: The platform eases tax compliance dramatically. It features built-in, updated tax tables and seamless e-filing features for income tax and TDS returns (including Form 24Q generation and FVU validation). It also handles advanced features like digital Form 16 and 12BA generation, significantly simplifying the financial year-end process.
Payslip Generation and Distribution: With a single click, the software generates accurate payslips and can distribute them instantly via email and even WhatsApp, saving HR countless hours of administrative work.
Managing when and how employees work is essential for productivity and accurate payroll. Saral Pro's HR software solutions provide sophisticated tools for real-time tracking:
Flexible Attendance Tracking: The system offers multiple, modern ways for employees to clock in and out, supporting biometric devices, mobile app check-ins (with optional location verification and face recognition for secured login and identity confirmation), and traditional manual entries. This ensures accurate time capture regardless of the work environment (office, remote, or site-based).
Simplified Leave Handling: The Leave Management module centralizes all leave policies, making the process without delays. Employees can request leave through their self-service portal (ESS), managers can quickly approve or reject requests, and leave balances are updated in real-time. The system manages accruals, transfers, and lapse of unused leaves automatically, drastically reducing the manual effort required for tracking time-off.
Timesheet and Project Costing Clarity: Beyond basic attendance, the Timesheet feature allows employees to log hours worked on specific tasks and projects. This provides valuable insights into resource utilization, project efficiency, and project costing clarity, helping management make better decisions about resource allocation and future planning.
A fundamental shift in modern HR is empowering employees to manage their own data, and Saral Pro’s HR software solutions excel here with their integrated Employee Self-Service (ESS) portal (Saral HRM is also available as a dedicated mobile app).
24/7 Access to HR Data: Employees gain continuous access to their essential HR information, including payslips, income tax statements, loan/advance details, and real-time leave balances.
Update and Request Management: Employees can update personal details like contact information and emergency contacts, ensuring data accuracy across the organization. They can also submit requests for leave, loans, advances, and reimbursement claims through the portal, streamlining the entire request-to-approval workflow.
Transparency and Engagement: By providing this level of access and control, the ESS portal enhances employee engagement, builds trust, and drastically reduces the number of routine queries directed to the HR department, freeing up HR staff for more strategic tasks.
The Saral Pro platform manages the entire employee lifecycle, ensuring smooth transitions and sustained performance.
Recruitment and Onboarding: The HR software solution supports the hiring process by optimizing daily HR tasks and speeding up candidate screening. It facilitates a stress-free transition for new hires with automated onboarding workflows, ensuring all necessary documentation is completed quickly and efficiently.
Documentation Management: The system offers centralized storage and secure management of all essential employee documents, contracts, and HR policies, ensuring easy retrieval and audit-readiness.
Performance Management (PMS): Saral HRM offers tools for performance appraisal and tracking, allowing managers to set goals, provide continuous feedback, and conduct structured reviews to boost overall productivity and employee development.
Exit Management: It streamlines the offboarding process with automated handovers, clearance processes, and insightful exit surveys, ensuring a structured and smooth departure.
The true value of Saral Pro's HR software solutions extends far beyond simple automation; they unlock strategic advantages for the business:
Actionable Insights and Reporting: The system’s reporting module is powerful, providing detailed and real-time reporting on critical HR metrics. This includes reports on payroll expenses, tax liabilities, attendance patterns (like Muster Rolls), and employee earnings. These actionable insights allow management to spot trends, monitor costs, and make truly informed decisions for workforce planning and resource management.
Scalability for Growth: Saral HRM is built to be scalable. It effortlessly grows with the organization, handling increasing numbers of employees and evolving HR complexities, making it a sustainable investment for businesses planning rapid expansion.
