Construction HR admins have a lot on their plate. In any given week, they might hire a new employee, onboard a full group during ramp-up season, provide certification requirements to equipment operators, and make sure everyone is tracking their hours correctly. For some companies, all these tasks fall on the shoulders of one or two people. The last thing they need is admin work eating up more time, especially given that 42% say time-consuming administrative tasks are holding them back. They need construction HR software that simplifies their office work by having everything in one place.

Arcoro provides exactly that solution. The Arcoro Platform gives you a centralized place to manage everything, without working across multiple systems and making day-to-day tasks easier to complete.

Reducing Your Administrative Burden

The Arcoro platform brings every part of people operations, e.g., hiring, onboarding, benefits administration, and time tracking, into a single, connected location. Everything lives in one navigation menu, and any feature is reachable in two clicks or fewer.

“It has all the information on the first screen... everything was right there,” says Arcoro customer Kimberly Black, HR Generalist at The Scruggs Company.

Kimberly uses the Arcoro platform to find the right applicant, send them through to onboarding, and move them into learning and evaluations, all while keeping the record in one electronic filing cabinet.

She’s able to add someone to the system once and have them automatically set them up where they belong, resulting in fewer chances for mistakes. And fewer mistakes mean less rework and more time for Kimberly to focus on her people.

The Arcoro Platform also provides visibility by ensuring everyone has the access they need. For example, once onboarding is complete, the hiring team can see who’s starting and when. And with certifications and profile photos right on the record, safety teams can quickly confirm who someone is and what they’re qualified to do, reducing risk on the job site.

The Platform allows Arcoro customer Christopher Dimsdale, Workforce Development Specialist at Fred Smith Company, to see who has finished onboarding, along with their start and hire dates, so training is ready before day one.

Visibility doesn’t mean there aren’t any safeguards. Administrators stay in control of access from the same screen. They can grant product access, assign a role, or switch off a single permission without affecting anything else. Perhaps most importantly, they determine who can view sensitive information like I-9 documents or full Social Security numbers. Superintendents can be scoped to only the jobsites they oversee. Records open in read-only mode, so nothing changes until an admin edits and saves, and a single save sets up access that takes effect immediately. Multi-factor authentication and single sign-on are managed in the same place, giving teams security and simplicity without jumping between systems.

Handling Multiple HR Tasks with Arcoro

Wondering how all of this will streamline your day-to-day HR tasks?

Here’s a fictional example of how an HR administrator gets through her day with Arcoro:

Consider a typical day for Mary, an administrator at Summit Ridge Builders. Her to-do list includes adding a new employee, updating a permission, granting access to a new product, and converting a contractor into an employee. Before, Mary had to use three different systems, manually moving the data between each. With Arcoro, she can handle every task from one unified platform.

Mary has a new laborer starting on Monday. When the new hire is added, Arcoro creates the records they need across Arcoro’s Onboarding, HRIS and Benefits, and Arcoro Time (formerly ExakTime), at the same time. That means less room for error and a smoother start for the new employee.

Next, she changes one employee’s permission directly from their person record while leaving the rest of their access intact. She gives a site superintendent who is taking on more responsibility access to Onboarding, selecting the right role and locations and tailoring his permissions to his new duties. Finally, she updates employment information for a contractor who is becoming a full-time employee and adds the Arcoro products she now needs, choosing exactly which products and permissions to include.

By the end of the day, Mary has handled four common workforce changes without duplicate entry or switching between products. Arcoro’s People experience keeps it all in one place. Now Mary has time to get out of the office early to attend her son’s soccer game or dig into a new initiative that will reduce labor costs on out-of-town jobs.
