Kivra Works Smarter with Hailey HR

As companies grow and the number of employees rapidly increases, system support becomes a necessity for efficient work. Kivra chose to switch from a set of separate cloud services to the HR platform Hailey – a strategic choice to automate otherwise time-consuming HR administration and keep their employee data secure.

Kivra grew from 30 to nearly 200 employees in just a few years – a journey that, according to Erik Lignell, CHRO, has placed high demands on their HR team. To effectively manage their rapidly growing organization, they chose to implement the modern HR system Hailey.

“We need a system that is easy to use and meets all regulatory compliance requirements. It is crucial for us that employee data is handled securely and reliably – that is our top priority. As a small HR team, we must work resource-efficiently; I have never seen it as an option to build processes that require large staffing efforts, especially when it comes to administration. I want to automate everything that can be automated, so we can spend our time creating an organization and culture where employees thrive and are their best selves, every day.”

Eliminating Unnecessary Administration and Saving Time

Erik explains that Kivra was looking for a cloud-based platform that could collect all employee data and simultaneously simplify and automate central HR processes such as on- and offboarding, performance management, and other everyday routines. The goal was to replace several separate systems with a unified solution.

“Working in a single system instead of several means a significant efficiency improvement. The right system support is crucial for working smart, and that is precisely what we have used Hailey for. By collecting and automating our HR processes in one and the same tool, we have been able to eliminate manual steps, which has both saved time and reduced the risk of careless mistakes. In repetitive tasks, the human factor is always a potential risk – but with automation, we can reduce the risk significantly,” he says.

Small Team – Big Impact

When a company grows, it is crucial to have clear processes that serve as support rather than control – and that can easily be scaled up in line with the organization’s development. This has been a cornerstone of how the HR team at Kivra works, says Erik Lignell. Instead of acting as a central unit that takes over other people’s tasks, the team has focused on creating the best conditions for both employees and managers to succeed in their roles.

“It creates positive effects throughout the organization. When employees see how a tool like an HR system simplifies their everyday life, they realize the value it adds. Hailey not only saves time and makes work more efficient – it also contributes to an increased understanding of HR’s role. When everyone can easily follow their own journey through clear processes, it promotes transparency, which in turn strengthens trust and lays the foundation for a sustainable and healthy corporate culture,” he says.

Challenging and Streamlining

Henrik Jakobson, CEO of Hailey HR, describes Kivra as a dream customer and a true pioneer when it comes to streamlining old ways of working.

“With Hailey, we also want to challenge and streamline the old, so we are extra happy when like-minded companies choose to use our product,” he concludes.
