Case Study: Barlean's achieves 50% faster onboarding and 1-hour payroll with Paylocity

Barlean's Nourishes Better HR Processes with Premium Tools

Barlean's, a family-owned health supplement manufacturer with 100+ employees in Ferndale, Washington, struggled with manual, paper-based HR and payroll processes, limited visibility to deskless workers, and compliance strain as it grew. To modernize and simplify HR, Barlean's selected Paylocity for an integrated solution covering payroll, time and labor, Recruiting, Onboarding, and employee communication.

Paylocity implemented automated Onboarding and Recruiting, consolidated payroll and time workflows, deployed the Community collaboration tool, and provided an AI Assistant for faster HR tasks. The result: onboarding time cut by over 50%, payroll processing reduced from a half-day to about one hour, 100+ employees managed in a single platform, and improved communication and self-service across the organization.
