Cost-saving Zalaris Application Simplifies Key Time Registrations for ArcelorMittal Poland and its 10,000 Steel Industry Employees

On-the-go digital approach enables entries from anywhere there's an Internet

connection, driving efficiencies for staff and management across the enterprise

Another industry leader is turning to Zalaris for unique HR solutions - in this

case the largest steel producer in Poland, ArcelorMittal. The company selected

Zalaris to introduce an application, "HRapka," for individual registration of

absences and overtime. The application dramatically reduces paper consumption

while making all steps more efficient for time-off requests and overtime pay

procedures associated with the company that employs approximately 10,000 people

across Poland. Zalaris Consulting Poland is responsible for the project's

implementation, slated for completion by year end.

HRapka users have access to the application from virtually anywhere, including

office workstations on premise or via mobile devices compatible with Android and

IOS. The application combines technology enabling employee self-service and

access to online personnel data (via SAP SuccessFactors integration) with the

payroll calculation system (SAP ERP), while changing paper documents into a

digital request-and-authorization process.

"In just a few clicks, employees can easily check vacation days and other time

off available at any given time; update their personal data; send requests; or

see the availability of other team members, for example," explained Katarzyna

Kwiatkowska, Zalaris Country Manager Poland. "In addition to simplifying access

to relevant data and saving time that would otherwise be spent on completing,

printing and submitting paper-based requests to HR coordinators, this

application brings digital advantages that ArcelorMittal staff and management

will both greatly value."

When considering the economies of scale that HRapka enables, covering an

estimated 10,000 people, company leaders anticipate saving nearly one ton of

paper annually or the equivalent of several adult trees annually. "One of the

most rewarding aspects of what we do as a company is helping our customers

become more efficient in ways that are also good for the environment as well as

the health and well being of their employees," Zalaris CEO, Hans-Petter Mellerud

points out. "We are passionate about making a difference everywhere we do

business, including at the community level throughout Europe, the UK and

Ireland."
