Employment Hero HR Setup
Employment Hero HR, configured the right way.
We implement the HR side of Employment Hero end-to-end for Australian businesses — awards, onboarding, leave rules, and reporting set up to match exactly how you operate. Payroll setup is a separate service. Typically live within 3 weeks.
Why it matters
A misconfigured platform costs more than you think
Employment Hero is a powerful HR platform — but only when the HR side is set up correctly. Incorrect award configuration, broken onboarding workflows, or miscalculated leave rules can lead to underpayments, compliance breaches, and hours of manual correction.
We've seen it happen to businesses that tried to set it up themselves or used a generalist consultant who didn't know the platform well enough. Getting the HR configuration right from the start is always cheaper than fixing it later.
As Employment Hero HR specialists, we know exactly what needs to be configured, in what order, and how to test it before you go live. If you also need payroll configured, that's a separate engagement — we keep the two distinct so nothing falls through the gaps.
Our process
From kickoff to go-live — typically within 3 weeks.
A structured four-step process that keeps your implementation on track, on scope, and free of surprises.
Discovery & scoping
We learn your business — industry, team size, awards, and current HR pain points. This shapes how we configure Employment Hero HR specifically for you, not a generic template.
HR platform configuration
We build out your Employment Hero HR environment — awards, onboarding workflows, leave rules, performance settings, and custom reporting — matched to your exact requirements.
Testing & team handover
Before go-live, we test every HR workflow end-to-end and train your team so they feel confident using Employment Hero from day one.
Post-launch support
We stay available after go-live to answer questions, resolve issues, and help you get the most from the HR platform as your business grows.
