Abstract
The human resource departments in many companies have various processes which include checking employee attendance, disbursing payrolls, applying for jobs, handling company events and training programs, handling leave and absence requests and lastly, checking on employee welfare. These processes, however, are handled manually for example job application could become tedious due to the many processes that an applicant would have to undergo at the physical establishment in order to apply for a job of choice. Such manual handling of these processes was tiring and therefore cause inaccuracy and inefficiency. The developed solution was a web-based information system that would seek to automate these processes in the human resource department. It would be able to make job application easier for applicants and ensure that employees requesting leaves and absences would be able to do so by communicating to the right channels through the system. The system was developed using the prototyping methodology. Other tools that were used include PHP as the programming language, Brackets as the IDE , MySQL as the DBMS and usability testing as the testing method
