A lengthy, manual timekeeping and payroll process prompted Unified Wire and Cable to seek a modern, streamlined solution with Paycor.
“Paycor is on top of it. I don’t have to worry about a change with the tax code or child support a garnishment because Paycor just takes care of it. Everyone at Paycor really knows their stuff.”
Cathy Haener, controller, Unified Wire and Cable
Prior to Paycor
Unified Wire and Cable, based in DeKalb, Ill., had a disjointed timekeeping and payroll process that took a lot of time to compile and was fraught with potential for errors. HR leaders had to manually gather the in/out punches from the timeclock, tabulate total hours worked, separate overtime and double-time, and add vacation time or any reimbursements. After payroll was submitted, they’d receive a PDF confirmation and would have to manually enter the numbers into their GL. Onboarding took days with paper applications and documentation being passed from HR to supervisors on the floor.
Challenges
- Time consuming payroll process
- Paper-based documentation
- Manual timekeeping tabulation
- Lack of custom reporting
