Employee Relations & Labor Relations in One Platform
Employee relations covers the day-to-day activities: employee complaints, discipline cases, workplace conduct, and investigations.
Labor relations adds another layer: union contracts, seniority rules, grievance procedures and investigations, and collective bargaining agreement compliance. Many HR platforms are limited in how they handle these problems or may only cover one or two aspects in their core system.
Sodales natively extends with SAP SuccessFactors to cover all employee and labor relations cases without forcing teams to work in two separate systems.

Why do organizations add Sodales if they already use SAP SuccessFactors?

Sodales, however, extends the platform with employee relations, labor relations, health & safety, disability management, job accommodations, grievance management and workplace investigation processes.
Can Sodales manage employee complaints and workplace investigations?
Yes, Sodales provides a single system for managing employee complaints, workplace investigations, disciplinary actions, and workplace conduct cases.
HR can document complaints, track investigations, record findings, assign corrective actions, and maintain a complete case history until resolution.
Can Sodales manage grievance and arbitration workflows natively in SAP?
Yes. Grievance filing, tracking, and resolution happen inside your existing SAP SuccessFactors ecosystem with real-time visibility for HR, managers, and union representatives.
How does Sodales support progressive discipline tracking in SAP SuccessFactors?
Sodales applies standardized, policy-driven workflows to every disciplinary case. Our platform documents each step, applying consistent thresholds, and reducing the risk of inconsistent or biased outcomes.

Sodales supports these processes through configurable workflows integrated with SAP SuccessFactors.
HR can track case status, maintain supporting documentation, manage work restrictions and job accommodations, as well as disability and return-to-work programs in one system.
This centralization of records into a unified platform is a core differentiator that helps organizations save time by reducing duplicate work and keeping case information in one location.
Does Sodales handle health and safety compliance, including site audits?
Sodales supports safety site audits, incident tracking, and hazard reporting while also connecting each finding to the relevant compliance or disciplinary workflow.
How quickly can Sodales be deployed with SAP SuccessFactors?

Implementation timelines vary based on deployment scope, workflow complexity, and data migration requirements.
However, organizations can begin implementing core employee relations, labor relations, and health & safety processes in as little as 4 weeks.
Which SAP modules does Sodales integrate with?
Sodales integrates natively with SAP SuccessFactors for core HR and employee data, and directly connects with SAP S/4HANA, specifically the EHS and Employee Central modules.
