Case Study: Optometric Care Associates achieves major time savings and streamlined payroll with Deputy

Optometric Care Associates is an eye care practice and spectacles retail business

Optometric Care Associates is a two-location eye care and eyewear retail practice in Central California with four doctors and 14 staff. Corporate manager Kate Gillenwater was handling retail and clinical rostering, bookkeeping and payroll for both sites, which required driving between offices to collect timesheets and doing the work of several people—eating into her personal time and creating operational headaches.

After adopting Deputy (integrated with ZenPayroll) the practice moved to web-based scheduling, time-and-attendance and payroll. Staff clock in via smartphone, managers can approve and export timesheets remotely, overtime is calculated automatically, and payroll is processed in a few clicks—cutting admin time dramatically, eliminating the travel and manual calculations, and freeing Gillenwater to focus on running the business.
