Digitizing HR holistically: ZMI and perview systems establish new cooperation

Hamburg/Elfershausen, 25.10.2022 – Time recording made easy: In the future, customers of perview and ZMI will benefit from the new partnership between the two software providers. Since 13.09.2022, there is a new legal situation in Germany regarding the recording of working hours. As a result of a ruling by the Federal Labor Court in Erfurt, proper time recording becomes mandatory for employers. What can be implemented comparatively easily in traditional operations certainly poses challenges for operations in modern scenarios. How, for example, can time recording be done for employees who work in the home office on a partial or full time basis? For such situations, ZMI offers the right solution. Working time recording is no longer thought of as stationary, but flexible. Documentation can be done on the spot, but also online – via the web or in the company’s own app. This makes it easy for companies to comply

Digital control of COVID-19 detection with ZMI

Elfershausen, 20.01.2022 – In its new release 6.4, ZMI offers the possibility to digitally control EU COVID-19 proofs of employees. Employees use the ZMI app for iOS and Android™ to scan their vaccination records, proof of convalescence or test certificates regardless of their location and thus transmit the current 3G record to their employer. Thus, the verification and control obligation pursuant to § 28b (1) and (3) Infection Protection Act (IfSG) can be mapped completely digitally. “By integrating it with digital time recording, companies and organizations do not need a separate system and at the same time can also access a comprehensive notification management system consisting of e-mail, SMS and push notifications if, for example, the necessary proof has not been provided on time,” says managing partner Steffen Berger. A role-based authorization concept also ensures that only authorized persons can access the 3G verification documentation. ZMI has become a leading
