How it works

Run your team in Colombia from one record

Each employee has one profile that follows them from their first day to their last, with the full history.

  • Onboard. Invite a new hire by email. They complete their own profile and documents before day one.

  • Contract. Upload the employment agreement you already use, or set up custom contracts. Employees review and accept them in their portal.

  • Track time. Employees clock in on the web or the desktop app against the schedule you set, and file overtime with a reason.

  • Approve leave. Employees request time off in their portal, managers approve it, and balances update on their own.

  • Record changes. Promotions, transfers, salary changes, allowances and deductions, each with an effective date.

  • Offboard. Close out a resignation or termination in one checklist, with final pay computed and exit documents kept on file.
