Workforce management

Rosters, leave and onboarding in step.

Leave requests, roster changes and new starters touch your HR, rostering and payroll systems, and someone keeps them in step by hand. Kiln does it for them, with a manager wherever a decision is needed.

Today

How the work runs now. And why it is slow.

01

Leave leaves gaps

Approved leave is found to clash with the roster after it is too late to fix.

02

New starters wait

Contracts, accounts and inductions are set up by email, and the first week is lost.

03

Payroll is reconciled by hand

Timesheets and leave balances are checked across systems every pay run.

With Kiln

How Kiln runs it. Step by step.

  1. 1

    Pick up the request

    A leave request or new starter in Employment Hero starts the workflow.

  2. 2

    Check the roster

    Kiln checks cover in Deputy and offers the shift if someone is needed.

  3. 3

    Get it approved

    The manager approves from Teams or email, with the roster impact in front of them.

  4. 4

    Update everything

    The roster, payroll and the employee are updated, and the record is kept.

What changes

Less chasing. More done.

No surprise gaps

Cover is sorted before leave is approved, not after.

Ready on day one

New starters have their contract, accounts and roster before they arrive.

A cleaner pay run

Leave and timesheets reach payroll already checked.
