Empowering employees to take charge of their accountability by partnering with Replicon
In integrating Replicon with the rest of their ecosystem, Adtalem was able to become both fully automated and completely paperless from hire to retire for all HR and employee data, and they no longer worry about holes in their data or lapses in their system. In fact, the 20 hours of administrative payroll-related overhead has been almost entirely eradicated, enabling employees to redirect that time into more valuable tasks.
Additionally, as a public company, it’s crucial for Adtalem to run internal audits and remain SOX-compliant — and this process has similarly benefited from accurate employee data and a fully-automated data collating process. For other compliance-related needs, Replicon’s global compliance library is always up-to-date with relevant labor laws (and current updates or changes to these laws), ensuring that remaining compliant is a hassle-free experience.
When Adtalem decides on any solution from a vendor, they emphasize a partnership rather than a transactional relationship, and seek out products that uphold their values, and help them foster a culture of empowerment and accountability.
“Culturally, as an organization, we are constantly striving to drive accountability and autonomy for our employees, which the Replicon system fits into well,” says Evans. “We run our standard audits, but at the end of the day we trust our employees to report their time accurately, and our managers to manage time accordingly, both without excessive oversight or handholding.”
Replicon’s UX plays a critical role in this as well, and Lumani reveals that its clean, easy-to-use interface for both desktop and mobile were an important part of their decision to partner with Replicon.
Adtalem understands that part of emphasizing employee empowerment means investing in systems that offer a clean, easy, and positive experience to the end-user, so they sought out a system that not only had the right look and feel, but also reflected the modernity of their organization by offering Cloud and mobile capabilities.
As Adtalem continues to broaden its global education influence through possible expansion into the United Kingdom and various Caribbean islands, the Replicon partnership will continue to grow alongside it, and play a critical role in the overall structure of the organization moving forward.
“Replicon is a big part of our future as Adtalem grows,” says Lumani, “We’re looking forward to further optimizing the way we use it so we can keep realizing additional efficiencies to every extent possible.”
