Managing the teams on the frontline of healthcare
In healthcare, your people are your service. Employment Hero keeps your clinical and administrative workforce more compliant, paid correctly and supported, so you can keep your focus on patient care.

What’s holding your healthcare workforce back?
PAIN POINT 1
Agreement complexity across clinical and support roles
Healthcare and aged care providers employ nurses, allied health professionals, care workers, admin teams and pharmacy staff under a mix of Individual (IEAs) and Collective Employment Agreements (CEAs). Managing shifting pay scales, Pay Equity rates, shift allowances and complex Holidays Act 2003 calculations across these groups creates major underpayment risk and leaves your organisation vulnerable to Labour Inspectorate penalties.
✦ EMPLOYMENT HERO
We manage complex multi-agreement environments seamlessly. Whether your staff are governed by collective union terms or individual contracts, Employment Hero applies the right pay rates, shift allowances and statutory entitlements automatically.
PAIN POINT 2
Clinical credentialing and registration tracking
Annual Practising Certificates (APCs), professional indemnity insurance, vaccination records and Children’s Act safety checks all have expiry dates. In New Zealand healthcare, a lapsed credential is not just an HR issue but a serious regulatory and patient safety risk.
✦ EMPLOYMENT HERO
Store all credentials centrally and automate expiry reminders, helping your team stay ahead of renewals, maintain valid practising certificates and eliminate compliance gaps.
PAIN POINT 3
Fragmented systems creating compliance risk
Healthcare businesses often operate with separate tools for rostering, payroll, HR records and compliance documentation. When these don’t talk to each other, data is duplicated, errors creep in and an audit-ready system is impossible to maintain.
✦ EMPLOYMENT HERO
Bring rostering, payroll, HR records and compliance documentation into one connected system to reduce duplicate data entry, minimise errors, improve visibility and make audit-ready records easier to maintain.
Still running your team on manual workflows?
Let automation handle your complex award rates

Nurses, allied health, support workers and admin staff operate under a mix of Individual (IEAs) and Collective Employment Agreements (CEAs). Employment Hero automatically applies the correct pay rates, Pay Equity steps, sleepover rates, travel time allowances and shift entitlements for each role. It also has built-in warnings to prevent payroll errors before you finalise a pay run.
Never miss an expired clinical registration again

Annual Practising Certificates (APCs), professional indemnity, vaccination records and Children’s Act safety checks are all stored against each employee record. Expiry reminders go out automatically before a credential lapses, so you always know your clinical team is fully cleared to practise.
Get support staff shift-ready before day dot

Healthcare providers onboard staff quickly, often with complex documentation requirements. Employment Hero digitises the entire process, contracts, policy acknowledgements, credential uploads, IRD details and KiwiSaver forms, so new hires can meet compliance standards more easily before their first shift.
Sync your rosters and payroll in a single click

Build rosters that reflect your service delivery commitments, track attendance in real time and feed timesheets directly into payroll. For home and community care providers, ACC service providers and multi-site clinics, having rostering and payroll in one system removes manual reconciliation entirely.
