HR & Payroll

CanePro's HR and Payroll is specifically designed to meet the requirements of large sugar estates where the bulk of the employees are given daily tasks.

Employee activities are recorded daily using a simple calendar-based user interface, providing immediate access to labour productivity and attendance data.

There are a number of benefits to having the payroll completely integrated with the fields system. CanePro can monitor recorded productivity versus 'possible' productivity (e.g. actual meters cut versus meters available for cutting). The daily attendance data is also used to accurately generate manpower productivity reports and for comparing budgeted man days with actual man days.
