Native sync

Employment Hero HR + construction payroll.

Employment Hero HR can stay as your employee system of record while Project Payroll runs construction payroll. Employee records, onboarding and leave balances sync natively, and award or EBA interpretation happens in our engine with our team maintaining it.

Employment Hero HR questions

Do we have to leave Employment Hero HR?

No. Many clients keep HR there and run payroll with us.

Who maintains EBA configuration?

We do, included in your price — no paid configuration projects and no waiting weeks for a change.

What about support hours?

Ours are 24/7 and free, which matters when a pay run breaks at 9pm on a Thursday.

Is leave calculated twice?

No. One system of record per object, agreed at setup.
