Employee benefits are a key part of recognising, rewarding, and retaining your staff. They provide employees with a reward system that can increase engagement, improve morale, and demonstrate the value your organisation places on its people.

With Employment Hero's Benefits Management feature, you can set up and enable your own benefits, customise them to make them easier to identify, determine how often they are provided, and assign them to specific employees based on location, eligibility, and other criteria.

Important

The Benefits Management feature does not sync with the Payroll platform. You will need to manage payroll benefits separately in the Payroll platform if you want the benefit to be reflected there.

Getting started

  1. Click Benefits & Perks menu.
