With a preconfigured global pay rule library across 250+ jurisdictions in 80+ countries, multi-location businesses can hit the ground running. Replicon’s powerful solution frees HR/Payroll teams from the search for manual solutions. It also liberates local vendors to manage labor laws in each country, region, or city. Over-the-air updates, a comprehensive compliance dashboard, and real-time rule monitoring keep businesses up-to-date on adherence to regulations.

7. Enhanced Scheduling

Employee scheduling simplifies planning for staffing across shifts. As a result, businesses can manage costs by proactively adjusting to avoid under or over-staffing shifts. Plus, real-time communication about shift updates ensures complete control over employee productivity and overtime.

8. Comprehensive Time-Off

Employees can leverage self-service capabilities to request time-off, reducing the administrative burden on HR teams. An integrated accruals engine with the ability to manage leave balances, resets, and effective dates helps set up complex, global policies and proactively manage any potential liabilities.
