What’s standing between your team and the work that matters?

PAIN POINT #1

Stretched HR resources and no dedicated people team

Most non-profits don’t have the luxury of a full HR department. People management often falls to a CEO, operations manager or finance lead who’s already wearing multiple hats. Manual processes make an already difficult job harder.

✦ EMPLOYMENT HERO

One platform manages your entire employee lifecycle, from digital onboarding and contracts to leave management and payroll, so your leadership team isn’t buried in HR admin.

PAIN POINT #2

Managing a mixed workforce of employees and volunteers

Non-profits often operate with a combination of paid staff and volunteers, sometimes across different programmes, locations and funding sources. Keeping track of who falls under which employment obligation, and what records need to be maintained, is genuinely complex.

✦ EMPLOYMENT HERO

Employment Hero helps you manage paid staff compliantly and maintain clear records across your workforce, with visibility across your team no matter how it’s structured.

PAIN POINT #3

Agreement and Pay Equity complexity

Roles in the for-purpose and community sector often span a complex mix of individual employment contracts, collective agreements and sector pay scales. Getting pay steps wrong or miscalculating statutory leave creates risk around statutory holiday pay compliance.

✦ EMPLOYMENT HERO

Our automated payroll engine simplifies compliance across complex community sector contracts, applying the correct pay scale steps, allowances and statutory entitlements automatically so your funding goes to your cause.
