Workforce Insights (Core HR) ​

This page documents the shipped Workforce Insights screen (hcm-employee), under Core HR. It brings together the figures an HR team asks for that the directory and the HR dashboard do not give. Not for plugin developers.

Workforce Insights

The tiles and the two sentences ​

  • Headcount, Joiners this month, Leavers this month, and Turnover, 12 months (%).
  • Turnover is the people who left in the last 12 months divided by the average headcount (headcount 12 months ago and now), times 100. A person has left on the last working day of an applied separation (the effective date when none is given). Resignation and retirement count as voluntary; every other separation type counts as involuntary; the sentence gives both numbers.
  • The second sentence gives this month's birthdays and work anniversaries, profile completeness, how many contract, visa, passport or certification dates fall in the next 60 days, the position fill rate, and any possible duplicates (the same email or phone on more than one person).

The charts ​

ChartWhat it shows
Headcount over 12 monthsPeople employed at the end of each month
Joiners, leavers and movesPer month: hired, left, and changed job or unit
Why people leaveSeparations in the last 12 months by type
When people leaveLeavers in the last 12 months by time with the company
Gender by departmentWomen, men and others per department. A department under 5 people is shown as one group with no split, so nobody can be picked out of it
Position fillApproved headcount against people in the positions, by unit
Profile gapsActive people missing a manager, email, phone, date of birth, emergency contact or bank account. Completeness is the share of these items that are filled
Dates in the next 60 daysContracts, visas, passports and certifications that end soon
Employment mixPeople and full-time equivalents (FTE) by kind of employment. A person counts as 1 in headcount and as their FTE (1.00 full time, 0.50 half time) in the FTE figure
How long positions have been openPositions below their approved headcount, by days without a holder

All figures come from this application's own employee, separation, assignment-history, position and employee-information records, and refresh about once a minute. On a phone the cards stack one per row.

Position control ​

In HCM Settings > Employee, the Position control switch (off by default) stops a joiner from being made ready when every approved seat of their position is already taken by other active employees. The reason is shown in the joiner's readiness list. It applies to joining only; adding an employee directly, movements and promotions do not check seats.
