How a Social Services Nonprofit Increased Productivity by 20%

Key Takeaways

  • Paycom helped decrease the workload of the nonprofit’s HR department by 20% and save 800 hours per year.

  • The nonprofit reduced data errors by 15% because employees helped verify the data they know best.

  • Employees lose trust in their organization when they can’t access the data that matters to them most.

  • Today’s employees expect workplace tech to be just as intuitive as the tools they use in their personal lives.

Nonprofits often support vital causes with limited resources. And when every action counts, outdated HR processes require unnecessary effort.

A Connecticut-based nonprofit experienced this firsthand with its previous HR solution. Without any self-service tools or meaningful integration, HR was forced to manually manage an avalanche of sensitive data. This inadvertently left employees in the dark when it came to the information that impacts them most.

“Employees had to contact HR every time they needed to update their information,” said the nonprofit’s HR coordinator.

The organization desperately needed tech that could:

  • shift the administrative burden
  • enhance the employee experience
  • engage talent with easy-to-use functionality

Why should employees use self-service tech to manage their HR data?

People use tech every day to make their lives easier. The nonprofit’s HR coordinator believed the same could be true for employees’ HR tools.

“New employees expect to have technology in the workplace, especially younger generations,” said the HR coordinator.

Paycom put the data of the nonprofit’s 400 employees where it always belonged — in their hands. Doing so pulled HR out from endless, redundant tasks, saving the department more than 800 hours per year. And because employees used Paycom’s self-service software to verify the data’s accuracy, it reduced data errors by 15%.

Today, the nonprofit has fully entered the digital reality. New hires arrive on their first day ready to focus thanks to Paycom’s employee onboarding tools. Plus, employees can train anytime, anywhere courtesy of Paycom’s learning management software. Without the need for the previous, on-site training strategy, the nonprofit saved its corporate trainers 35 hours per month.

With enhanced accountability and accuracy, the nonprofit’s employees could get back to serving others. And because the organization’s people could access their data whenever they needed it, HR had the opportunity to find more ways to make employees’ lives even better.
