About Persada

Personel Alih Daya (Persada) is a company specializing in workforce outsourcing management. Since 2022, Persada has been using Mekari Talenta to support HR operations. With thousands of employees, efficiency in HR and payroll management plays a crucial role in ensuring smooth business operations.

Challenges in the HR management 

Before adopting Mekari Talenta, Persada still managed HR and payroll processes manually. This approach created several major challenges, including:

  • Slow payroll process
    Payroll calculation took nearly a week. As a result, salary distribution was delayed and operational efficiency decreased.
  • Time-consuming tax and BPJS reporting
    The HR team had to manually compile tax and BPJS reports, including data for new employees and salary adjustments.
  • Limited payslip access
    Employees could only obtain payslips from admins who sent them manually. However, this process was neither flexible nor transparent.
  • Complex employee data analysis
    Attendance, tenure, and performance data could not be analyzed in real time. Therefore, management struggled to make quick and accurate decisions.

Mekari Talenta as the solution

After implementing Mekari Talenta, Persada experienced significant improvements. Payroll processing now takes only 1–2 days, which is far faster compared to the previous process. In addition, tax and BPJS are already available in automated templates that always comply with the latest regulations. This eliminates the need for HR to create new templates every year.

At the same time, employees can directly access their payslips and personal data through the Mekari Talenta app. This not only improves transparency but also reduces the HR team’s administrative workload. Moreover, the report builder and insight features enable HR teams and management to analyze employee data in real time, such as attendance, tenure, and role distribution. Reports can also be tailored for client needs, for example employee records, attendance, and compliance with tax or BPJS obligations.

Results experienced by Persada

With Mekari Talenta, Persada has gained several measurable benefits:

  • Faster and more efficient payroll process
    Automated calculations minimize errors and save HR team time. As a result, payroll distribution runs smoothly.
  • Flexible and comprehensive reporting
    Reports can be customized to management needs, therefore making data analysis easier and more accurate.
  • Updated regulatory templates
    Tax and BPJS are always available in automated templates that comply with government regulations. This makes the reporting process much simpler.
  • Real-time data access for employees
    Employees can instantly view their payslips and HR data through the app, instead of waiting for admin.

Previously, the payroll process could take up to a week. With Mekari Talenta, it can be completed in about 1–2 days. Once it’s submitted, it can be processed right away.
