Issue
A New York City charter school network, with over 250 employees, faced HR and payroll challenges amid rapid growth. Focused on quality education, they needed an efficient system for complex HR tasks, payroll processing, and grant management. However, their existing HR infrastructure was inadequate, leading them to seek a comprehensive human resources information system (HRIS).
Solution
The school adopted Centrally HR, our comprehensive HRIS platform designed to streamline payroll, benefits, and compliance management. This led to several transformative improvements, including:
- Seamless integration of applicant data for enhanced recruitment and onboarding.
- Automated management of wage adjustments, time cards, hourly payments, and leave tracking, covering FMLA, intermittent leaves, and payroll deductions.
- Customizable reporting tools for precise allocation of salaries and benefits across grants and budgets.
- Dedicated account manager providing ongoing tailored support and solutions.
Outcome
Implementing Centrally HR delivered impressive outcomes for the charter school network, including:
- Streamlined Workflows: The unified system reduced administrative burdens by simplifying processes and eliminating time-consuming manual tasks.
- Improved Grant Management: Accurate fund allocation and financial tracking ensured optimal resource use and full compliance with grant requirements.
- Enhanced HR Efficiency: Reliable customer support instilled confidence for effective HR management.
- Time and Compliance Savings: Simplified benefits management and onboarding saved time and ensured regulatory compliance.
