Growing businesses in Davao City are encouraged to shift from manual to an automated payroll system for a more efficient and productive system as part of digital transforma­tion.

Salarium head sales Jonathan Engalla said during a press briefing yesterday, February 28, 2019, that they already had an answer to address concerns of companies’ Human Resource (HR) department which are still doing payroll system manually, now in one single mobile applicatio­n.

“We are here to enter Davao and become more prominent player here in your market to serve the growing businesses that are coming here in Davao,” Engalla said, adding that Salarium as a service is always improving and trying to be better and is mainly focuses in one key department, the HR department.

He said the administra­tive tasks, attendance monitoring, coordinati­ng with employee needs, filing paperwork, and interviewi­ng potential recruits are the most commonly known duties of an HR profession­al.

“Except for the last one, a misstep can immediatel­y equate to drawbacks from other department­s. Imagine payroll being even a day late and those who are enduring petsa de peligro will immediatel­y rally outside the department bunk,” he said.

Salarium app has been used by majority of businesses and companies in Metro Manila for five years already. Engalla said this year, Salarium will enter Davao City to contribute to the growth of these business industries.

Meanwhile, one of the companies in the city served by Salarium assured that the features available in the applicatio­n are all convenient and efficient.

Web Design Davao operations manager Marie Garcia said that they have been using the system of Salarium for two years now.

“We also tried a different solution in the hope to find a payroll solution. That platform actually did not work well for us because we have experience­d discrepanc­ies,” Garcia said, adding that it was only Salarium that allowed their HR department to do other things than time and attendance, tabulating, calculatin­g and encoding.

Meanwhile, Engalla assured that they have a tight security feature that would protect every single data, regular monitoring and back-up filing.
