Case Study: Community Action for Social Support simplifies HR and payroll management with IRIS Software Group

Community Action for Social Support - Customer Case Study

Community Action for Social Support (CASS), a Cumbria-based charitable organisation supporting ex-offenders, vulnerable adults and young people, needed a better way to manage HR and payroll records across four offices. Finance Manager Brenda Layfield had been relying on spreadsheets and wanted a more efficient system that could handle absences, holidays, training and other staff records more reliably. She reintroduced IRIS HR Manager alongside IRIS PAYE-Master after finding her previous concerns had been addressed.

With IRIS Software Group’s IRIS HR Manager connected to IRIS PAYE-Master, CASS was able to enter information once and have it flow through both HR and payroll, reducing spreadsheet use and saving administration time. Brenda said the system produces strong reports, especially for absences, and the support helpline is helpful when issues arise. The result has been a smoother process for managing employee data, with less manual work and improved confidence in day-to-day HR administration.
