Hassle-Free Paydays: Upgrade Payroll Prep for Your Homecare Agency

If your homecare business is struggling with old payroll procedures that simply do not work anymore, or if you’re not using any software at all, it’s time to consider upgrading what you use for your payroll calculating to meet today’s demands and needs.

When you streamline your payroll calculations in-house, you have more time to focus on other vital aspects of running your company and have fewer mistakes in the process overall. Our systems allow you to properly calculate your gross pay in order to put it into a third-party system for prompt payments that reflect your employee’s true wages every time.

Why Upgrading Your Software Can Make Paydays Smoother

Save You Time and Money

It’s exhausting and time-consuming to work with old software, or even worse, manually enter payroll data. By taking away the manual component, you are able to save both time and money and allow your accounting department to focus on other issues. The time that your team spends learning new software is easily offset by the time that you will save once these new processes are in place. If you pay your team hourly, you will also save a lot of money that way as well.

Software that enhances the payroll process is a solid investment in your business and something that you need as you grow. Our payroll calculations systems can grow with your business and ensure that you always report the correct amount of your payroll no matter how many employees you take on.

Our payroll calculations are just one part of a suite of solutions that we offer to streamline your homecare business needs. Our goal is to allow you and your team to manage daily activities, not just in your payroll sector but across the board as well. This level of organization can serve your company well from the top down.  

Fewer Mistakes

If you do payroll manually or use an older system that can’t meet the needs or capacity of your current operation, you are at risk of making a lot of mistakes. Payroll mistakes can be both costly and damage your reputation over time. Payroll is one of the key elements of any successful business, and your top employees are going to expect that they are paid on time, every time, with absolutely no exceptions. As such, you need to ensure that your system is as accurate as possible.

Of course, mistakes will happen from time to time, but you can minimize the number of errors and make sure that any problems that do come up are dealt with in a timely and professional channel. Good software can also alert you to major problems before they get out of hand so that you can deal with them in real-time and keep your valuable employees as happy as possible.
If you want to attract higher-end employees, it’s vital to make sure that you’re not making routine mistakes with your payroll. With payroll calculation software that delivers accurate gross payroll data to your third-party payroll providers, you can rest assured that every employee is being paid properly all the time.

One Go-To System

Many human resources and accounting departments have a ton of different software and systems that they have to navigate, and it can be hard to ensure that all team members are up to date with the latest versions of each type of software. The best payroll solutions for your homecare business are those that operate as a one-stop-shop, meaning that you will only need to master one type of software in order to get everything you need to be done completed.

SwyftOps calculates all of your gross payroll for regular, overtime, bonus pay, and any additional categories of pay that you might have and puts it all in one place so you can import it into the third-party payroll company of your choice. It’s a seamless process that offers ease of export and import into several leading payroll providers including Paycor, Paychex, ADP, and Viventium.

Since the most reputable companies that create and offer payroll solutions also give all of their new customers a demo of the software, your core team will be totally versed on how the system operates and ready to share that information with any new people.

Customer Service Troubleshooting

One of the key reasons you should consider upgrading the system by which you handle payroll is that the best companies have 24/7 customer service troubleshooting. Payroll doesn’t stop at 5:00 p.m., and sometimes there are emergencies that simply need to be taken care of after hours or on the weekends. If you have a good customer service team by your side, you can rest assured that there is always someone on hand to walk you through any questions or system errors.

The best companies offer support every day of the year, 24 hours a day, and can help facilitate your needs through a number of different channels, including e-tickets, phone calls, or live chat.

It’s Much More Scalable

If your homecare business is in a growth pattern, and many are, you could benefit from enhanced payroll solutions that allow you to scale with ease. The best solutions are ones that work with your accounting department to ensure that all of their payroll information for existing employees is current and keyed in properly and then sets up a framework so that new employees can be onboarded and immediately integrated into your payroll solution with ease.

This allows you to scale without having to worry about employees getting left behind and gives you a chance to focus on the bigger picture challenges that your company will inevitably face as it grows.
