Case Study: CertaSite



As CertaSite grows, the need for a payroll and HR solution that intuitively merged acquired systems was paramount. In addition, employees and managers alike needed a user-friendly way to accurately track job costing for each assignment and ability to clock in and out remotely.
Prior to Paycor
Passionate about fire protection and life safety, CertaSite helps keep people and the places they work up & running, profitable and compliant. But with no real labor costing tools at their disposal, tracking each job was a tedious manual process at best. As the company continues to grow, acquiring businesses throughout Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Illinois, they needed an automated and simpler way to track jobs by hours, projects and tasks.
Challenges
- Lack of job costing capabilities
- Manual applicant tracking and onboarding
- No mobile clock in/out options
After Paycor
Paycor’s payroll and time solutions provide a seamless experience and don’t require manual entry of individual hours worked per job. Managers and employees alike appreciate the mobile timekeeping app features, such as recording missed punches, requesting PTO and leaving notes.
Solutions & Key Features
- Automated applicant tracking
- Customizable learning tracks and certification
- Mobile timekeeping and enhanced visibility into PTO requests
- Labor costing
- Increased efficiency in new hire onboarding
Time & Attendance
Requests are tracked electronically with immediate approval from managers and employees can easily access their own information while tracking their PTO allotment in real time. Mobile punching allows admins to verify punch location and record missed punches.
Job Costing
Managers can set up multiple labor code categories (using company naming conventions) to accurately track specific projects and tasks. Can export and exchange functionality to third-party systems and integrates with the general ledger.
Onboarding
The streamlined experience introduces company policies, the employee handbook and any relevant industry regulations. New hires (and newly acquired hires) can view and sign documentation before their first day, lessening any potential compliance issues that may arise.
Learning Management System
Paycor’s LMS helped increase productivity across the workforce by offering a consistent training experience for employees, including a certification program for technicians.
