Case Study: Suttons Motors Group reduces onboarding time and staff turnover with HROnboard

Taking Suttons Motors’ onboarding into the fast lane

Suttons Motors Group, a family-owned automotive company with 24 dealerships and about 1,400 employees, was struggling with slow, manual onboarding, complex multi-employer requirements, and high staff turnover. Before working with HROnboard, new hires could take up to three weeks to onboard, and many started without signed agreements, creating compliance and productivity risks.

HROnboard implemented a mobile-friendly onboarding solution with custom contract templates, electronic signing for forms, and integration with Suttons’ payroll processes. The impact was significant: onboarding time fell from three weeks to 48 hours, staff turnover dropped from 35.3% to 23.6%, HR resources were freed up, and compliance improved so that no new hire started without completing onboarding.
