In a business like yours, we know it’s vital that every new hire is made efficiently. Developed with multi-site staffing agencies in mind, our onboarding platform allows you to set up workflows for all your locations and positions so new employees can onboard themselves via an intuitive, self-service process.
Have payroll batches with employees across multiple locations and tax parameters? No problem. Our platform makes it easy to assign hours to different locations within the same pay period and employee. It automatically accounts for tax code assignments (no need to manually switch tax codes when an employee moves to a new site) and tax reciprocity agreements.
With transient employees - especially those who are hired and re-hired dozens of times - it’s difficult to track Payroll and HR items correctly. Our platform makes it easy to re-hire and reactivate employees while keeping a single employee record. We also provide trouble-free termination pay and limitless special pay runs to handle any edge cases.
Manage your staffing teams with simple permission settings to control who can view and interact with specific groups of employees. And to get even the biggest jobs done, multiple payroll processors can work on the same payroll batch, with visibility and permissions assigned individually.
Our compliance engine automatically alerts you of potential compliance issues covering ACA, new hire reporting, garnishment orders, wage bases adjustments, and more. On-the-fly exception management and warnings also detect duplicate data entry and incompatible records.
Payroll in the staffing industry is like processing normal payroll, it must be accurate and timely, however, it presents its own unique set of opportunities.

Staffing industries can manage payroll manually or using a provider;
Manually: You can manually calculate payroll, giving you full control of your payroll. This option provides you with complete control, but it can be time-consuming and costly. Doing the calculations manually takes time because you have workers in a variety of locations, with unique schedules and different tax withholding requirements. If there are any miscalculations or missed deadlines, there can be fines and penalties, and manually processing payroll increases your compliance risk.
Outsourced: As a staffing agency, you can focus on hiring and recruiting and outsource your entire payroll and HR operations. This is a good option if you would like a completely hands-off approach to your payroll and HR needs. There is no need for an in-house team, and you can just focus on recruiting talent, however, with this approach, you lose all control and ability to configure to your business needs.
Payroll and HR software: Give your employees access to their important documents and benefits information. Allow employees to update their personal information and access their pay history from the desktop or their mobile app.
