The Challenge of Staffing Requests & Approvals
Managing staffing requests is a usual yet often cumbersome process for HR teams and department heads. Many organisations rely on outdated, manual methods that involve lengthy email chains, paper forms, and unclear approval hierarchies. This results in:
- Delays in hiring due to prolonged approval cycles.
- Lack of transparency, making it difficult to track request statuses.
- Inconsistent approval processes, leading to errors and inefficiencies.
- Increased administrative burden on HR teams, who must manually process and follow up on approvals.
To address these challenges, Numla HR provides an intuitive Dashboard for Staffing Requests Approvals, ensuring a structured approach to workforce planning.
Numla HR’s Staffing Request Dashboard
Numla HR simplifies and accelerates the staffing request process by centralising requests, approvals, and tracking within a single platform. The staffing request dashboard enables HR teams and department managers to efficiently handle talent requests with minimal manual intervention.
Automated Workflows
The biggest pain point in staffing requests is the approval process. Numla HR automates this workflow, ensuring that every request follows a predefined path:
- Staffing requests can be initiated by senior managers or other authorised personnel, depending on the organisation's approval structure.
- Requests are automatically routed through the predefined approval hierarchy, which may include department directors, finance, or HR.
- The approval sequence is fully customisable, allowing additional approvers to be added as required.
- Automated notifications keep each approver informed and eliminate delays.
- The system logs all approvals with timestamps, offering full visibility into request status and identifying the next approver in line.
With this structured approach, bottlenecks are minimised, and HR teams no longer have to chase down approvals manually.
Access Control
Access to staffing requests is controlled to ensure only authorised personnel can submit or approve requests. The process is structured as follows:
- Senior managers or other designated personnel initiate requests, which are then routed through a secure workflow.
- Each approver signs off through their authenticated login, ensuring accountability.
- The system automatically fetches details from the staffing request into the required format, reducing manual data entry.
- Once HR receives the request, they only need to review and validate the information before sending it for final approval.
This access control ensures compliance with organisational policies while streamlining the approval chain.
How Numla HR Eliminates Approval Bottlenecks
Numla HR’s staffing request dashboard is designed to eliminate common inefficiencies in hiring approvals. Key features include:

HR teams and managers can view the live status of requests, including pending, approved, or rejected submissions. This transparency reduces uncertainty and enhances accountability.
Automated Notifications & Alerts
The system automatically sends reminders to pending approvers, ensuring that requests do not get stuck in the pipeline. This feature significantly reduces unnecessary delays.
Integration with Recruitment Workflow
