Case Study: Thames Coromandel District Council achieves streamlined HR, lower costs and faster reporting with EmployeeConnect hosted HR solution

Thames Coromandel District Council - Customer Case Study

Thames Coromandel District Council, New Zealand’s first district council charged with environmental and community services, needed to consolidate employee records and provide manager and employee self‑service across 223 staff at multiple service centres. In 2007 the council chose EmployeeConnect’s hosted HR solution to centralize HR data, improve security and availability, and support remote access for managers and employees.

EmployeeConnect delivered a hosted HR platform that consolidated records, enabled employee self‑service, and provided web reporting and high availability. As a result, Thames Coromandel District Council reduced HR workload, achieved faster decision‑making through online reports, saved on hardware/software and IT maintenance, experienced minimal downtime, and benefited from an affordable subscription — prompting plans to add EmployeeConnect’s recruitment module.
