Case Study: Berks County improves election worker payments with Tyler Technologies Disbursements

Berks County streamlines poll worker payments in 4 weeks with Tyler Technologies

Berks County faced a significant administrative challenge in paying its large force of election workers. The process relied on manual paper check disbursements, which was time-consuming, labor-intensive, and costly for multiple county offices. The goal was to ensure these essential workers were paid promptly without discouraging them from returning.

Tyler Technologies implemented its Disbursements software solution, transitioning payments to pre-paid debit cards. This allowed for bulk uploads of worker data and same-day or next-day payments. The results included major time and cost savings, the elimination of unearned payments, and improved satisfaction among poll workers. Tyler's solution streamlined the entire disbursement process for the county.
