1. Growth Entails both Toning and Building
Encapsulated
Time Management
The pharma industry in India has logged double digit growth rate (about 14 per cent) in the last five years and this is expected to continue in
2014 too. India can safely boast of low cost of production. While production costs are about 50% less than that of the global market, overall
R & D costs are about 1/8th of the Western countries. The nation’s socio economic factors also make India a hub of generic drug
manufacturing. This sector has a proven edge over others, having exhibited resilience during the economic meltdown. Keeping the progress
factor in near sight, the pharmaceutical industry will also need to adjust to the changing workplace dynamic and cultivate a strong image as
a strong contender in choice of employment.
While India has an advantage in terms of costs of production, pharma companies maintain their own set of challenges. An expected
growth in the pharma business and job opportunities will entail
• Streamlining of workforce management to face a demand of hiring and retaining recruits.
• Focus on quality management and a strategy to maintain healthy business potential and growth
• Infrastructure management and conformance to global standards
The assemblage of job profiles in the pharmaceutical sector extends from sales, marketing, HR, to R & D. Geographically, R & D and HO
locations are usually far apart, especially for SME’s. And Employee Lifecycle Management is still based on physical data entry and paperwork in
several companies. The legacy systems involve manual practices of recruitment, payroll processing and leave management amongst other HR
operations. For multi location enterprises, it is an arduous task to maintain records of attendance and leave management on paper. Sales force
is mostly operating on field, and rendered offline as their work entails visits to clinics, hospitals, pharmacies etc. Employees on the field and HR
both have to keep track of individual information via manual data entry. This proves to be onerous not just for HR and employees, but for the
Team Manager or RO as well.
The Employee
The employee struggles with calculations based on leave types, and
with a chunk of them being out on field most of the time, contacting
HR for each and every query is cumbersome. Other aspects that bog
down productivity are applying on duty and tracking no. of hours put
in for work each day.
The Manager
A manager who keeps his implementation plan on track, needs an
overview of the team attendance and leave summary at a glance.
Unprecedented circumstances may force some employees to take
sudden leave. In this case, work planning can go haywire. Smart
planning will require taking unforeseen absence of a team member
into account so work load can be adjusted. But this is possible only
if data is available at a glance, individually, as well as of the entire
team. Overseeing manual updates is tedious and impractical.
HR
The HR team has to coordinate leave and attendance to sync it with payroll. Manual inputs and communication for employees out of office,
or geographically distant, is a huge workload and more so, dull administrative work.

Breathing a Sigh of Relief
To organize current, incoming and future payrolls, and long distance Human Capital Management, companies need to make data integration
their first and foremost goal. Employee Leave Management is an intrinsic and complex process in an organization that affects all employees.
However, filling up exhausting forms and doing regular rounds of follow-up with the HR for approvals/accruals becomes not only time
consuming and tedious, but also annoyingly unproductive. Merely having an explicit leave policy in place is no longer enough in today’s
workplace scenario. Employee Attendance, Payroll and Leave Management need to be consolidated so all employee related data is available
at one place for the HR team and management to plug in and assess. Employees who are part of the field force need accessibility from their
working site or even on the move, so that applying for leave, on duty, obtaining individual leave information, types of leave exhausted etc. is
displayed at one go, so they have secure and relevant data on their leave and payroll status. There is a tangible need for Pharma companies
to engage in optimizing their workforce for profitable business solutions, alongside boosting employee morale by providing a hassle free work
environment.
