What is Paylocity?
Paylocity offers a scalable and customizable HR and Payroll software solution designed to fit the specific needs and budgets across organizations of various sizes. Designed with employees in mind, teams can access and navigate the platform, whether on desktop or mobile app. And with more active users, HR teams can create custom dashboards, dig into employee trend data, and make more informed business decisions.
While some HR systems work to create walled gardens around their client’s data, Paylocity aims to deliver a complete, single platform solution with flexibility and choice built in. Paylocity’s offerings are fully integrated, ensuring operation across 350+ service providers. Open, developer-friendly APIs are also available to connect Paylocity to any system.
Payroll, Scheduling, and Time Tracking Management
Paylocity helps users to navigate the complexities of time and attendance with automated policy enforcement, real-time communication, and in-depth analytics. Employees get self-service options to reduce administrative overhead. Users can build staffing plans by combining smart-forecasting, AI-powered scheduling, and tools that ensure the right people are in the right place at the right time. Adaptable time capture options help to meet the evolving needs of a workforce. Paylocity offers badge or biometric time clocks, mobile app, tablet kiosks, or the web app to record accurate timekeeping data.
Simplifying the Management of Employees, Documents, and Compliance
Workflows can implement routines for time-consuming manual tasks spanning the platform. A catalog of out-of-the-box compliance forms and templates for common tasks like offboarding or position/pay changes are also available. Employee documents are stored in one location – from offer letters and tax forms to exit documents. Paylocity offers quick access to work authorizations, EEO, FLSA compliance data, and industry news through a dashboard. Employees have 24/7 access to payroll and HR data via desktop and the Mobile App; empowering them to access their paystubs and tax forms, update personal information, request time off, and to collaborate with their teammates.
Finding and Retaining Top Talent
Market Pay data is included to help define compensation and stay compliant with pay-related regulations. AI is included to help write job descriptions and text or QR promotions are available to extend candidate reach. New hires can be introduced to the company with video messages from leadership that highlight organizational culture and values. They can also complete pre-boarding tasks from anywhere with the Paylocity Mobile App. Collaborative goal setting helps to boost performance reviews and text or video journals help drive engaging conversations between employees and supervisors.
Driving Communication, Collaboration, and Connection
Workforce connections and motivation with recognition of milestones and achievements help to improve workforce morale. A community function is available to improve communication and foster a culture of engagement. Paylocity also offers insights into a team’s engagement via automated surveys. These help teams to stay informed by integrating video throughout the platform: in job postings, leadership announcements, and product updates.
