The normalisation of remote work resulting in new complexities and affecting employee productivity, as well as the need for changes to be adopted in the current HR processes, has laid the groundwork and accelerated the move of outsourcing the HR function of companies, to drive greater efficiency and value for businesses. Infomate Ltd., the first shared services organisation in Sri Lanka, has taken a bold step to play a compelling new role in helping Sri Lankan companies to successfully embrace this trend. Infomate Chief Executive Officer Jehan Perinpanayagam said: “Generating revenue has never been more important as in today’s context. It is therefore critical for business owners and management to zero in on what they do best, whilst employees affected by the pandemic in their personal and professional lives, need to know their HR issues and matters will be handled efficiently and expeditiously. The HR outsourcing model accomplishes all these objectives.” Infomate team has taken on the integral role of being at the forefront in providing strategic, customised HRO services to support companies manage their HR processors as well as in securing the best possible talent for their organisations. Head of Operations – HRO and Payroll Services Dishan Samarathunga said: “One of the greatest benefits of HR outsourcing for companies is having access to specialised HR expertise in all the areas of HR. It also saves time and money, which are two critical resources today.” Infomate’s outsourced recruiting function helps companies manage all functions involved in securing the best talent, by utilising various advanced platforms to advertise a vacancy, pre-screen candidates, and shortlist and set up appointments for the interview and subsequently initiate the entire onboarding process of the selected candidate.
