Handle escalated grievances, disciplinary inquiries, and legally defensible termination approvals.
Govern payroll accuracy and timeliness, approve monthly payroll before closure, and ensure zero-error execution and audit-ready employee files.
Lead HR digital transformation on Odoo HRMS — automating attendance, payroll, recruitment, performance, and records — and maintain HR analytics dashboards.
Deliver weekly CEO reporting, monthly headcount/cost/absenteeism dashboards, and quarterly workforce risk and talent-pipeline reviews.
Drive Training Needs Analysis, L&D calendars, leadership development, high-potential identification, and succession planning for critical roles.
Own employee engagement strategy, recognition programs, employer branding/EVP, and high-performance culture across plant and corporate teams.
Prepare and control the annual HR budget (payroll, recruitment, training, visas, insurance, benefits, incentives) and optimize manpower cost ratios without impacting productivity.
