Employee Portal

No more HR DMs or chaotic 'IT please help' group chats

PTO requests, VPN issues, and employee verifications get lost in direct messages. New hires hesitate to ask. volbor provides a unified desk: the bot handles SOPs instantly, and tickets route to the right queue.

Three Service Portals

HR, IT, and Facilities — separate queues, one unified desk

  • People

    HR

    Policies, employment verification, PTO, manager approvals.
  • Access

    IT

    Password resets, VPN access, hardware issues with photos, incident alerts.
  • Workplace

    Facilities

    Badges, business travel, meeting rooms, expense receipts.

Access Control

IT never sees confidential HR tickets

  • RBAC

    Queue-level permissions: HR cannot see infrastructure incidents; IT cannot see compensation details.

  • Strict Isolation

    A dedicated, private HR channel. No unmanaged 'all-admin' group chats.

  • GDPR / SOC 2

    Document and ticket retention policies aligned with international compliance benchmarks.

  • Single Sign-On

    Corporate email or SSO: Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Okta.

Employee Lifecycle

From onboarding to offboarding in a single system

  1. 01

    Onboarding

    Bite-sized task checklists instead of overwhelming documentation on Day 1.

  2. 02

    Ticketing

    Clear SLAs, statuses, and automated escalation if a ticket sits unassigned.

  3. 03

    Offboarding

    Access revocations, hardware return checklists, exit interviews — no forgotten VPN accounts.

Business Impact

Routine policies never block HR's calendar

  • 'How do I request PTO?' [1]

    The bot serves the policy and request form instantly. HR stops reading the company wiki out loud.

  • New hires never feel stuck

    Interactive bot onboarding replaces a silent, intimidating Slack channel during the first week.

  • VPN down at 9:50 PM [2]

    A structured ticket with screenshot in the IT queue — not an unread DM to an engineer until morning.

HR & IT FAQ

Before launching your internal desk

Active staff only?

Yes. Enforced via corporate email domain or directory sync. Offboarding instantly revokes access.

Multi-step approval workflows?

Team lead → Finance → Procurement. Employees track status updates directly in the same thread.

Duplicate requests?

The bot displays existing open tickets before prompting to create a new one.

Methodology & Sources

How numbers on this page are calculated

  1. [1]
    A single PTO policy never blocks HR's calendar

    Article + automated form vs. ~10 minutes of HR manual guidance per inquiry. Illustrates administrative time savings, not head-count elimination.

  2. [2]
    Late-night IT incidents don't have to wait until morning

    9:50 PM message in an engineer's personal DMs vs. a prioritized IT queue ticket with diagnostic screenshots. Operational benchmark, not external market research.
