Profile management

Manage staff profiles and capture all key information from the moment they apply using the Kobas recruitment portal, through to their 5th work anniversary.

• Store and update all contact and next of kin details.

• View all historical application information including references and interview progression.

• Kobas automatically logs service time and syncs work anniversaries to your Kobas staff calendar.

• Manage the employee’s user level, username and EPoS pin.

• Report disciplinaries and schedule required meetings.

• Manage and store employee performance reviews and appraisals.

• View and manage an employee’s skill matrix.

• Review time and attendance logs and holiday allowance activity.

• Set reminders for key employee processes, feeding into your Kobas staff calendar view for increased organisation.

• Manage a compliant and fair exit procedure.

• Upskill your team members by adding training courses to their schedule.

Onboarding

Once your selected candidate becomes a new member of staff using our recruitment and applicant tracking software, it’s time to begin the onboarding process. There are many legal requirements to follow alongside your own internal requirements, so we’ve made the onboarding process slick, simple and consistent to ensure those requirements can be managed.

• Create, send and store digital contracts and other important documentation.

• Store crucial information such as right to work documents, bank details, emergency contacts, and uniform receipts.

• Create and manage starter tasks in an easy to update list via the employee’s profile. You can customise these tasks with ease too.

• Supports P45 capture.

Skills matrix

Understand each employee’s skill set and how flexible they can be across other roles in the business, with the Kobas skills matrix feature.

Create a log of different roles and assign them to your employee’s skill matrix. When scheduling employees in a rota for skill-specific shifts, this feature becomes particularly useful. For instance, if a manager assigns a member of staff to a junior sous chef shift but they only have a kitchen porter role applied in their skill matrix, the system will alert them before scheduling.

Require an extra bartender on a specific shift? No problem. Our system will show you exactly which staff members can fulfil that role using the information assigned.
