Case Study: WorkXtra Aged Care achieves streamlined HR, payroll and compliance management with Employment Hero

WorkXtra Streamlines HR and Payroll With Employment Hero

WorkXtra Aged Care, an Australia‑wide provider of multidisciplinary therapy services with 500+ employees and sustained 100% year‑on‑year headcount growth, needed a reliable HRIS to manage onboarding, rostering and strict compliance for its occupational therapists and physiotherapists. To meet these challenges the organisation chose Employment Hero (Employment Hero Premium and HeroPay/HeroPay Premium) to centralise employee records, compliance tracking and payroll for remote and shift‑working staff.

Employment Hero rolled out a staged implementation—importing employee data, syncing payroll with HeroPay, and enabling mobile access and automated compliance reminders—so managers can see certification status and staff can self‑manage details on the app. Employment Hero eliminated double/triple data handling between HR and payroll, reduced administrative overhead for rostering and payments, improved audit readiness and payroll accountability, and provided the visibility WorkXtra needed to scale confidently across its national, remote workforce.
