Introducing a new era for Workstream: Fully integrated payroll, time & scheduling, HR, hiring, and engagement

Written by Desmond Lim | September 30, 2024

At Workstream, our commitment has always been to empower hourly workers and the business owners who manage them with technology that works as hard as they do. Today, I’m excited to share that we’re increasing that commitment by introducing you to an exciting new chapter. As of today, Workstream is a complete all-in-one HR, hiring, and payroll platform that’s designed to make your job easier. And I can’t wait to show you how. 

What’s new

We recently conducted a survey to discover the biggest challenges in running hourly payroll. At the top of the list was reviewing timesheets and hours worked—these tasks were the most time-consuming tasks that business owners identified. So we set out to solve these problems and other associated challenges: managing overtime, breaks, tipping, compliance, labor laws, this list goes on and on.  

Our new Time Clock and Shift Scheduling addresses some of the biggest challenges in managing an hourly workforce, and running payroll specifically. Importantly, these new tools don’t just work alongside our payroll solution—they fully integrate with it, creating a unified experience that reduces administrative overhead and minimizes mistakes.

Time Clock

Our digital Time Clock makes tracking hours simple and accurate. Workers' hours are logged in real-time and instantly synced with Payroll. Potential issues with clock-ins and clock-outs are automatically flagged for you to review, so you can catch errors before they become big problems. This eliminates the need for manual timecard entries, reduces the risk of errors, and ensures you’re only paying for hours actually worked.

Why it matters to you

Accurate time tracking is essential for payroll and compliance. By integrating it directly into our platform, you’ll save time and avoid costly mistakes.

Shift Scheduling

Managing and distributing shift schedules can be a huge source of headaches, but not anymore. With our new Shift Scheduling tool, you can create, adjust, and share schedules with just a few clicks. Employees can access their shifts, swap them, and get updates—all in one place. And because scheduling is integrated with time tracking and payroll, everything flows together smoothly.

Why it matters to you

Scheduling efficiency directly impacts your bottom line and employee satisfaction. Our seamless integration ensures that when schedules change, payroll and time tracking adjust automatically, keeping your operations running smoothly.

 

Workstream Payroll, better than ever

We built Payroll to be as seamless and error-free as possible. By integrating real-time data from our Time Clock and Shift Scheduling, payroll calculations are done automatically, with less manual input required. This means no more scrambling to correct timesheet errors or worrying about compliance issues. And with automatic tax filings, you’ll stay on top of regulations without lifting a finger.

Looking forward

For years, we’ve seen businesses struggle with the complexities of managing and paying hourly employees. That’s why we’re so excited about this next chapter of Workstream. Our vision has always been to create technology that not only simplifies work but empowers business owners to manage their hourly teams more effectively. With Payroll tightly integrated into our all-in-one platform, you’ll no longer be bogged down by administrative tasks that pull your attention away from what truly matters: your customers and your people.
