What Is WorkNova HRMS?
WorkNova is a multi-tenant, web + mobile + kiosk workforce management platform covering attendance, leave, payroll and the full employee lifecycle from recruitment to exit — built as one connected system rather than separate tools bolted together.
Attendance & Time Tracking
Every employee punch — however it's captured — lands in one live record your managers can see the instant it happens, not at the end of the day.
- Four independent capture channels: biometric device push (ZKTeco/Hikvision, real-time), GPS-tagged mobile check-in that works offline and syncs later, kiosk tablet check-in with no login needed, and manual entry for staff without device access
- Attendance regularization workflow — employees request a correction, managers approve or reject it
- Shift management with bulk or CSV-import assignment, shift-swap requests and a full assignment history
- Company holiday calendar with separate Public and Internal holiday types
- On-Duty tracking counts off-site work as worked time, distinct from leave
- Overtime and short-duration permission (late-come/early-go) requests, both routed for approval
- Real-time dashboards over WebSocket — no refresh or polling needed
Leave Management
Leave requests move through one clear approval chain, with balances that stay accurate automatically.
- Apply, approve, reject or cancel leave requests from web or mobile
- Configurable leave types and categories, each with their own rules
- Per-employee leave balance tracking, always current
- Compensatory time off ("Comp-Off") earned for extra work, with its own approval workflow
Employee Lifecycle — Recruitment to Exit
From the first job requisition to the final exit clearance, every stage of an employee's time with the company lives in one record.
- A full HR master record — profile, documents, education, family details, work history, certifications, photo and biometric enrollment
- Recruitment: job requisitions move through a candidate pipeline (Applied → Screening → Interview → Offer → Hired/Rejected), with interview scheduling, feedback, and a direct candidate-to-employee conversion
- Onboarding: a new-hire checklist of tasks to complete before and during joining
- Performance: review cycles with goal-setting and a two-sided review — self and manager — through to finalization
- Training: a course catalog with individual or bulk enrollment and completion tracking
- Exit management: resignation or termination requests route through multi-department clearance — IT, Assets, Finance and HR each sign off independently — followed by an exit interview and close-out
Payroll
Payroll runs against the same attendance and leave data already in the system, so there's no re-entry and no reconciliation gap.
- Configurable salary components — earnings and deductions, fixed or percentage-of-basic — assigned per employee through templates
- A full payroll run lifecycle: Draft → Processing → Approved → Locked → Paid, plus ad-hoc runs for bonuses or arrears
- Employee loan issuance, tracking and closure
- Salary revision requests with approval
- Full & Final Settlement computed automatically on exit
- Statutory compliance configuration (PF/ESI/tax) with statutory reports
- Bank transfer batch generation and self-service digital payslips
Self-Service & Communication
Employees handle their own routine requests, so HR isn't the bottleneck for every question.
- Employee self-service dashboard for profile, payslips, leave, attendance and requests
- Company or branch-wide announcements with seen/unseen tracking
- In-app notification inbox
- Internal helpdesk ticketing across IT, HR, Payroll and Facilities categories, with priority levels, a full status lifecycle, comments and assignment
- Company asset inventory — assign, return, and an employee "my assets" self-view
- Meeting room booking with an admin-managed room catalog and automatic double-booking prevention, on web and mobile
- Employee expense claim submission and approval
Device & Biometric Fleet Management
IT keeps a single view of every biometric device across every site, instead of chasing serial numbers in a spreadsheet.
- Physical device registration with an admin approval lifecycle
- Unclaimed device serials are automatically claimed into a site once seen, and any punches pushed before approval are reconciled
- A vendor and model catalog covering ZKTeco, Hikvision and other major biometric vendors, with firmware records
- Device health telemetry and incident logging
Multi-Tenant & Multi-Branch Administration
Built for organizations that operate as more than one entity, branch or site — not adapted from a single-office tool.
- Multi-company (multi-tenant) architecture: Company → Branch → Project → Site → Kiosk hierarchy, each company fully data-isolated
- Per-company module licensing — features turned on or off independently per client or plan
- Per-company, per-role screen access control, fine-grained rather than hardcoded
Reporting & Dashboards
Every module feeds one reporting layer, so nobody's stitching together numbers from five different exports.
- One Reports module covering Attendance Summary, Late Arrival, Overtime, Leave, Comp-Off Balance, Attrition, Onboarding, Exit, Recruitment, Performance, Training, Helpdesk, Payroll Cost Summary, Loan Outstanding and Asset Assignment History
- Live dashboards for attendance trend, branch performance, company overview and pending approvals

Why One Platform Instead of Five Separate Tools
Attendance software, a leave tracker, a payroll tool and a recruitment ATS can each work fine on their own — the cost shows up in the gaps between them.
