Product Update: April 2025

llo from the Employment Hero team and welcome to the April 2025 product update. 

From reinvented Benefits and Perks to faster compliance reporting, we’ll cover it all right here. 

Let’s dive right in.

New employee dashboard for tracking benefits and perks available

Available to all subscription tiers

We want the employee experience to be as best as it can possibly be, that’s why we’ve released a new Employee Benefits & Perks Dashboard that gives every employee a clear, centralised view of what’s available to them.

To help clarify the distinction between different employee benefits available to employees: 

• Benefits are assigned by admins through the new benefits management tool.
• Perks are provided by Employment Hero and our partners e.g. Medibank discount, Gift cards, Earned Wage Access.

Improvements to rostering management for more informed scheduling decisions

Available to all EOS subscription tiers

We’ve improved Rostering Management to streamline and enhance the rostering process, making it faster and more efficient than ever before. These updates provide greater flexibility and visibility, enabling you to make smarter, more informed scheduling decisions.

Admins and managers can now directly copy and paste shifts within the roster, significantly reducing the time spent on repetitive scheduling tasks. This functionality is available in both Cost Centre Rostering and Work Sites & Position Rostering.

We’ve also introduced a 14-day temperature and weather forecast directly within the rostering interface. This empowers managers to proactively consider weather conditions when scheduling, ensuring the safety and comfort of their teams.
