Case Study: Longton Legal streamlines HR and compliance with Employment Hero

How a legal consulting firm streamlined HR with Employment Hero

Longton Legal, a legal consulting and advisory firm in New South Wales with seven entities and 196+ employees, needed a better way to manage HR, payroll, compliance, and employee processes across a complex multi-entity structure. With no established HR framework, the team wanted a single platform that could support recruitment, leave management, performance reviews, award compliance, and visa checks. They chose Employment Hero and its HR + Payroll Premium product to simplify operations and reduce risk.

With Employment Hero, Longton Legal streamlined recruitment, introduced quarterly performance reviews, automated leave and payroll processes, and made compliance tasks like VEVO checks and award-based pay easier to manage. The employee experience improved through the Swag app, which made it simple to submit leave requests and access payslips and personal information. While the case study does not provide hard numerical results, Longton Legal reported stronger employee engagement, easier performance management, and significantly simpler compliance across all seven entities.
