Employment Hero’s rostering software makes complicated shift requirements a breeze
Rostering in healthcare and social services can be complicated – patients’ needs change frequently and your roster must adapt quickly.

Stay ahead of regulatory requirements with reminders about upcoming certification renewals. Whether it’s maintaining privacy standards or managing health and safety requirements, document everything in-platform.
Plus, create and assign relevant learning and compliance modules to your team, and keep track of their progress towards completion.


Maintain a healthy budget when rostering, so you can focus on the health of those you serve
Our budgeting feature helps you track your spending on staff salaries and wages, including costly public holiday pay and overtime support. That way, you can focus on quality care for your patients – not paperwork.
Reduce employee burnout and improve engagement

We’re leaders in employment
See why Sound Care Group loves us
“Before Employment Hero, if I were to issue contracts manually, I would complete about 2 or 3 in an hour. Now, with Employment Hero, I can do one contract in just 5 minutes. You invest some time initially to set up a template, but that’s just a once off because you can then issue it over and over again. That’s an invaluable amount of time saved.”
“We’re now also using the Employment Hero certifications functionality for monitoring nursing registration and expiry. With this, we can monitor the expiry of driving licenses for our team.”
