Sentinel HR

The HRMS auditors trust. Sentinel HR unifies the full employee lifecycle — from recruitment to off-boarding — with built-in evidence trails for ISO 27001, ISO 27701, ISO 29110, ISO 20000-1 and Thailand PDPA. Bilingual by default. Cloud-native. Designed in Thailand for regulated enterprises across Southeast Asia.

Solution Overview

One Platform. Entire Employee Lifecycle. Audit-Ready.

Sentinel HR is a modern, cloud-native HRMS that replaces fragmented spreadsheets, manual leave forms, paper certificates and disconnected payroll tools with a single, compliance-engineered platform. HR, Finance, Managers and Employees all operate from the same source of truth — in Thai or English, on desktop or mobile PWA.

Every action — every leave approval, payroll run, training completion, role change, document upload — is captured in an immutable audit log. When auditors walk in for ISO 27001, ISO 27701 or PDPA evidence collection, they sign in with a read-only Audit role and pull the evidence themselves. No screenshots, no exports, no scramble.

Business Challenges We Solve
Manual leave, attendance and payroll workflows scattered across spreadsheets and chat apps
No audit trail when ISO 27001, ISO 27701 or PDPA auditors arrive
Mandatory security-awareness training (ISO A.6.3) tracked manually with no expiry alerts
PDPA breach handling without a 72-hour clock, consent ledger or DSR workflow
Bilingual Thai / English requirements forcing duplicate documentation
Approval workflows split across Leave, WFH and Salary pages with no unified view
Thai payroll tax errors from incorrect SSO ceilings or missing allowance declaration forms
Recruitment and CV screening done by email with no scoring discipline
Performance, probation and PIP cycles lost in email threads with no governance

What Sentinel HR Delivers

Every Module You Need. None You Don't.

Employees & Org Chart

Single employee master with hierarchical org chart, bilingual profiles, sensitive-field protection, and S3-backed document vault per employee.

Attendance & Shifts

Geofenced clock-in/out, WFH support, multi-site shift patterns, holiday calendars, and working-hour totals for today, week, month and year.

Leave Management

Configurable leave matrix, balance tracking, approval workflows, team calendars, and bilingual leave types aligned to Thai labour law.

Payroll & Tax

Monthly payroll runs with progressive PIT (PND.1), Social Security at 5% / max ฿875/month (2025 ceiling), provident fund, OT (1.5×/2×/3×), YTD-aware tax recalculation, manual overrides, bank export (KTB/SCB/KBANK/BBL/BAY), and bilingual payslips.

Mileage & Expenses

Category-based expense capture with budget gates, receipt OCR, multi-level approval, and direct bank payout — plus mileage reimbursement (distance × a configurable per-km rate), transport from/to and hotel venue capture, and editable drafts.

Recruitment & AI Screener

Job descriptions, CV intake, AI-assisted candidate scoring against JD with Thai-candidate filter, ranked shortlists, and tailored interview questions. Candidate phone (tap-to-call) and expected salary now surface on cards, in the emailed report, and in the .xlsx export.

Onboarding & Off-boarding

Template-driven task lists, asset tracking, IT-account provisioning checklists, and clearance workflows — all evidenced in the audit log.

Probation · PIP · Promotion

End-to-end probation reviews, Performance Improvement Plans with goals and check-ins, and structured promotion cycles with management oversight.

Performance · OKR · Goals

Quarterly performance reviews, OKR cascading from company to individual, goal tracking, and 360-degree feedback flows.

LMS — Learning Management

Course library, video / PDF / link modules, pre & post-tests, question banks for ISO 27001 / 27701 / 29110 / 20000-1, manual grading, and branded PDF certificates with expiry alerts.

PDPA Compliance Suite

Consent ledger, Data Subject Request (DSR) workflow, breach register with mandatory 72-hour Section 37(4) clock, and DPO console.

Activity & Health Monitor

Real-time view of login attempts, password expiry, account status, and member-since timestamps — direct evidence for ISO A.5.16 / A.8.5.

Immutable Audit Log

Every create, update, delete and approval captured with actor, timestamp and module — searchable, filterable, and surfaced for ISO A.5.36 compliance monitoring.

Reports & Exports

CSV / Excel exports across attendance, payroll, leave, LMS compliance and headcount — with Thai-formatted dates and comma-grouped numbers.

Roles & Permissions

Seven roles — Admin, HR, Management, Finance, Manager, Employee, and a dedicated read-only Audit role for ISO assessors. Fully configurable in Settings.

Bilingual UI

Every page, dropdown, email template and report is available in Thai and English with a single click — no separate Thai build, no translation backlog.

Unified Approvals Hub

One page. Seven tabs: Leave, WFH, Off-site, Expenses, Salary Adjustments, Bonus, and Promotions. Pending-count badge visible in the sidebar from every page. The Daily Briefing links here.

Daily Briefing

Executive morning digest: approval queue, attendance anomalies, ISO training expiries, compliance deadlines, probation reviews, and team birthdays — scoped by role, updated on every page load.

WFH & Off-site Requests

Work-from-home and off-site requests are standalone manager-approved workflows, decoupled from leave balance. Approved off-site requests let employees clock in at any location without geofence enforcement.

Employee Profile Tabs

Four-tab layout — Personal Info, Employment, Tax Declaration, and Experience & Education — so HR can navigate large profiles without scrolling. Tax Declaration defaults all 17 allowance fields to zero.

Tax Declaration

Per-employee Thai allowance form: family (spouse, children, parents, disabled dependants), life and health insurance, PVD, RMF, Thai ESG, GPF, NSF, mortgage interest, and donations. Feeds PND.1 withholding each month.

Employee Relations

Company announcements (with attachments) on the Daily Briefing, case management for grievances and disciplinary actions with guided investigation workflows, truly anonymous whistle-blower reporting with a status-check code, ER analytics with a recurring-issue watchlist, a searchable policy & knowledge base, and pulse / upward-feedback surveys — all audit-logged.

Shift Roster

Per-team shift rosters on a member×day grid, combined (back-to-back) shifts with a configurable daily cap, a live balance panel (weekly hours, overload / uneven-workload / consecutive-day warnings), Excel export and Excel/CSV import with preview, copy-a-member's-week to teammates, and duplicate week/month.

Configurable Employee Codes

Employee ID format configurable in Settings (Business-Unit + Department + running number, sequential, year-based, or a custom token pattern), with a backfill tool.

Why Teams Choose Sentinel HR Over Generic Global HR Suites

Most global HR suites bolt Thai compliance on as an afterthought. Sentinel HR is engineered for Thai regulated enterprises from the data model up — here is what sets it apart.

Compliance is wired into the data model — ISO 27001, 27701, 29110 and 20000-1 evidence and the PDPA breach register are first-class records, not plug-ins.
A native Thai payroll and tax engine — progressive PIT (PND.1), SSO ceilings and the allowance/Tax Declaration form are built in, not a localisation plug-in.
A dedicated read-only Audit role lets ISO and PDPA assessors pull their own evidence without ever touching live data.
Bilingual Thai / English from the database up — every field, label, email template and report, with no separate Thai build.
Managed delivery by a 15-year Thai enterprise-IT firm — implementation, role configuration, ISO evidence walkthroughs and ongoing support from one accountable partner.
Truly anonymous whistle-blower reporting plus an immutable audit log give Employee Relations real governance, not just a comment box.
FAQ

Sentinel HR — Frequently Asked Questions

Q.Does Sentinel HR help with PDPA compliance?

Yes. Sentinel HR includes a consent ledger, a Data Subject Request (DSR) workflow, and a breach register with the mandatory 72-hour clock required by PDPA Section 37(4), plus a DPO console — so personal-data obligations are managed in-system, not on paper.

Q.Is the platform bilingual in Thai and English?

Yes. Every page, dropdown, email template and report is available in Thai and English with a single click. Bilingual support is built from the database up — there is no separate Thai build and no translation backlog.

Q.Does it handle Thai payroll and statutory filings?

Yes. The native Thai payroll engine runs progressive Personal Income Tax (PND.1), Social Security (SSO) at the current ceiling, provident fund, and OT, with YTD-aware withholding, bilingual payslips and bank-transfer files for KTB, SCB, KBANK, BBL and BAY.

Q.Can external auditors access the system safely?

Yes. A dedicated read-only Audit role lets ISO and PDPA assessors sign in and pull evidence themselves — security-awareness training, access logs, approvals and the audit trail — without any ability to change live data.

Q.Which ISO standards does Sentinel HR support?

Sentinel HR maps evidence to ISO 27001 (information security), ISO 27701 (privacy / PIMS), ISO 29110 (VSE software engineering) and ISO 20000-1 (IT service management), with an LMS question bank and certificate tracking for each.

Q.Can shift rosters be imported and exported in Excel?

Yes. Per-team shift rosters export to Excel, and you can import from Excel or CSV with a preview-and-confirm step. A live balance panel flags weekly-hour overload, uneven workload and consecutive-day warnings, and you can copy a member's week to teammates or duplicate a whole week or month.

Q.Does Sentinel HR support anonymous whistle-blower reporting?

Yes. The Employee Relations module includes truly anonymous whistle-blower reporting with a status-check code, so a reporter can follow up on their case without revealing their identity — and every action is captured in the audit log.

Q.What does the Employee Relations module cover?

It covers company announcements with attachments on the Daily Briefing, case management for grievances and disciplinary actions with guided investigation workflows, anonymous whistle-blower reporting, ER analytics with a recurring-issue watchlist, a searchable policy and knowledge base, and pulse / upward-feedback surveys.

Q.How many modules does Sentinel HR include?

Sentinel HR ships with 40+ integrated modules across the full employee lifecycle — from recruitment, onboarding, attendance, leave, payroll and expenses to performance, LMS, PDPA, Employee Relations and shift rostering — all sharing one employee master and one audit trail.

Q.Can employees claim mileage and expenses in the system?

Yes. The expense module captures category-based claims with budget gates, receipt OCR and multi-level approval, and supports mileage reimbursement calculated as distance × a configurable per-km rate, with transport from/to and hotel-venue capture.

Q.Is Sentinel HR cloud-based and mobile-friendly?

Yes. Sentinel HR is cloud-native, hosted on AWS, and installable as a Progressive Web App (PWA) on iOS and Android — so HR, managers and employees can work from desktop or mobile.

Q.Does it use AI for recruitment screening?

Yes. The recruitment module scores CVs against the job description with an explicit, explainable scoring model and a Thai-candidate filter, producing ranked shortlists and tailored interview questions. Candidate phone and expected salary surface on cards, in the emailed report and in the .xlsx export.
