Spreadsheets for the directory, shared drives for HR files, a separate tool for org charts, another for compliance - and a week of reconciliation every time someone changes role. workit's HR Core is the centre point of the platform. Every module - recruitment, onboarding, compliance, policies, leave, performance, offboarding - writes back to the same employee profile, so one update is the only update. Everything in HR Core ## The whole workforce, in one platform. Directory, documents, org charts, positions and a single consolidated view of every staff member across every module. ### Employee directory A live, searchable directory of every staff member - with a consolidated view of their core HR data and every module they touch, from one screen. ### One employee profile, every module Open a staff member to see tabs for onboarding, compliance, policies, performance, leave and offboarding - the whole HR record in one place. ### HR files & documents Store contracts, certifications, ID, signed forms and any other HR document on the employee record - no shared drives, no missing paperwork. ### Reporting-line org chart Visualise the business by positional reporting hierarchy - see managers, direct reports and the chain of command at a glance. ### Business-unit org chart Flip the same data into a business-unit view - divisions, departments and teams - to understand how the workforce is structured. ### Position & reporting management Manage positions, reporting lines and structural changes centrally - update once and every downstream module stays in sync. ### User & access information User accounts, roles and access live alongside the employee record - onboarding, offboarding and changes flow through one system. ### Single source of truth Recruitment, onboarding, compliance, policies, leave, performance and offboarding all write back to the same master record - no duplicate data entry. ### Consolidated module view See the entire HR footprint of one person - pending tasks, acknowledged policies, expiring credentials, reviews due - without switching tools. Connected by design ## Every module reads from - and writes to - the same record. Hire someone in recruitment, finish their onboarding, and they flow straight into the directory and org chart - no re-keying. Acknowledge a policy and it's stamped on their profile. One record, every module, no reconciliation.
