From Paper Forms to Agile and Traceable Processes
Before implementing Humand, many fundamental processes at Schneider SRL—such as leave requests or absence notifications—were managed manually. Employees filled out paper forms that had to be signed by supervisors and then approved by management, leading to delays, disorganization, and loss of information. Verbal requests for unexpected absences or salary advances were common, and workplace incidents lacked a centralized system for logging and tracking. This fragmentation made planning and control difficult, especially in an industrial environment where precision is key.
Why They Chose Humand
Humand had the structure and flexibility needed to digitize and organize the plant’s internal processes. The ability to configure custom workflows—such as forms with dual approval—enabled the establishment of clear, traceable, and accessible procedures for everyone. Clear process management and the close support from the Humand team were key factors in their decision.
In addition, Schneider SRL was one of the first companies to adopt the platform. Having systematized and organized information made it easier to manage human capital, support strategic planning, and align workforce needs with the organization’s overall goals—contributing to both employee well-being and organizational development.
From Reaction to Prevention: A New Management Model
Between March and April 2022, Schneider SRL activated a wide range of modules: Internal Social Network, Organizational Chart, Benefits, Knowledge Libraries, Documents, Quick Links, Courses, Birthdays and Anniversaries, Events, and Employee Experience.
The most transformative tools were the digital forms: permits, late arrivals, absence notices, salary advances, accidents, and incidents. Everything can now be managed from a mobile phone, at any time. Approvals are notified, traceable, and accessible, enabling better daily staff planning and more efficient payroll management. Additionally, pay slips and timesheets were digitized, eliminating printing costs and allowing each employee to access their documents anytime.
““Humand was key to taking the step towards automation and digitalization of Human Capital processes, which is a one-way journey. It helped us organize and simplify processes that were previously informal and that also caused us to waste resources. It allowed us to secure our processes and generate savings in time and materials. It is a great tool for us.””
