Your business has outgrown the tools you started with
At this stage, the employment side of your business has probably grown faster than the systems supporting it. Disconnected payroll, manual onboarding, compliance tracked across spreadsheets. Employment Hero consolidates all of it.

Any of these sound familiar? Here’s how Employment Hero helps.
PAIN POINT 1
Your HR and payroll systems don’t talk to each other
At your scale, most businesses are running HR in one place and payroll in another. Every pay run requires manual cross-checking. Every headcount report means pulling data from three different places. The information exists, it just takes too long to get to it, and by the time you have it, something has changed.
✦ EMPLOYMENT HERO
Employment Hero brings HR, payroll, leave, recruitment, onboarding and performance into a single connected platform. When something changes in one place, everything else updates automatically.
PAIN POINT 2
Your HR team is buried in admin instead of doing HR
One HR generalist managing 80 people means most of the day goes to approvals, contract requests, onboarding paperwork and payroll queries. Other important areas, like performance, culture or workforce planning, can fall to the bottom of the list.
✦ EMPLOYMENT HERO
Automated workflows handle the repetitive tasks like onboarding checklists, leave approvals, contract generation and payroll processing, so your HR team can redirect their time to the work only they can do.
PAIN POINT 3
You’re making workforce decisions without the right data
At this size, leave liability, headcount trends and turnover patterns start to matter, but getting reliable numbers means manually compiling reports from disconnected systems. Most teams at this stage know what they want to measure, but don’t have the tools to do it efficiently, so decisions get made on gut feel instead.
✦ EMPLOYMENT HERO
Employment Hero’s reporting and analytics give you real-time visibility across your workforce from leave balances and headcount, to performance trends and payroll data. All in one place, ready when you need it.
One platform for every part of employment

Get started in three simple steps
You don’t need a three-month implementation process. Most businesses are up and running within two to four weeks.

Migrate your existing data cleanly
Our implementation team manages the transfer of your employee records, leave balances and payroll history. You’re not starting from scratch, and you’re not doing it alone.

Configure for the way your business actually works
Set up approval workflows, leave policies, onboarding checklists and payroll settings to match how your team operates. Employment Hero is built to fit the way your business operates.

Hand the day-to-day back to your managers and employees
Once live, employees manage their own leave, timesheets and details through the app. Managers handle approvals and performance reviews directly. HR stops being the middleman for everything.
