ControlM Launches 'PeopleGenie' AI HR Management Solution for Food Service Industry

Significantly Reducing Store HR Workload
Through Automated Attendance and Allowance Management

On May 29, food tech company ControlM announced that it has newly added the store human resources (HR) management service 'PeopleGenie' to its artificial intelligence (AI) solution exclusively for food service operators, 'RestoGenie'.

PeopleGenie automatically calculates wages and allowances based on clock-in and clock-out records. Reflecting the unique characteristics of the restaurant industry, where break times often change, the system allows users to easily adjust and enter break times with just a few touches. It also controls penalties to ensure that, in the event of issues such as tardiness, no penalty exceeds 10% of the monthly salary, thus staying within the limits set by Korean labor laws.

Additionally, PeopleGenie aggregates essential employee information, such as health certificate expiration alerts and uniform distribution, in one place to improve work efficiency. It also enables direct printing of documents required for submission to tax accountants or banks. According to ControlM, using PeopleGenie can reduce payroll processing work time at each store by up to 80%, or an average of four hours per day.

ControlM will first implement PeopleGenie at About Coffee, a leading franchise in Jeju. In the second half of the year, the company also plans to sequentially introduce a 'Store Profit and Loss Integrated Dashboard' that allows store operators to view all operating costs, such as payroll calculation and ingredient orders, at a glance. Jonggwan Won, CEO of ControlM, stated, "Our goal at ControlM is to support decision-making in all aspects of store operations."
