Company details
Written by the company
Employment Hero is an AI Employment Operating System (OS) that unifies recruitment, HR, payroll and benefits into one automated infrastructure for SMEs and growing organisations. Built to remove everyday employment friction, the company provides a global solution for over 350,000 businesses and 2 million users to manage their workforce across industries like tech, healthcare and retail. Employment Hero moves beyond traditional HRIS by using AI to enhance manual workflows into a hands-off operation. The platform functions as a system of action rather than just a system of record, where AI handles the heavy lifting of the employment lifecycle. Instead of simply presenting a to-do list, the OS triggers the next move; whether that is shortlisting a candidate, updating a compliance policy or running a complex pay cycle. It is designed for businesses that want their employment tasks handled autonomously, rather than just having another software tool to manage. AI-Led recruitment: Moves candidates through the funnel automatically, from job posting to offer, using an AI Recruitment Agent to screen and rank talent 24/7. Automated payroll engine: Orchestrates complex calculations, tax compliance and reporting across different jurisdictions without the need for manual data entry. Unified HR & compliance: Acts as a single source of truth for contracts and policies, featuring built-in triggers that automate onboarding, time-tracking and performance reviews. Employee superapp: A mobile-first hub where teams access payslips and manage leave while tapping into a suite of wellness perks and financial benefits. Integrated Learning Management System (LMS): Enables tailored training pathways and performance reviews to foster professional development without manual coordination. Proactive people ops: Uses built-in AI to answer routine HR questions instantly and surface items needing attention before they become administrative bottlenecks. The primary value of the platform enables companies move faster by reducing operational drag across the employment lifecycle.. It solves the problem of fragmented tools and repetitive manual work by providing a single, intelligent thread that connects every part of the employee experience. By automating the routine, Employment Hero allows leadership teams to stop chasing paperwork and start focusing on the strategic growth of their people and culture. Languages supported: English and French.

Easy to access
Easy to access, easy to find features like payslips, displays the needed statistics and simple interface
Normally we receive a great service until its critical like today
Normally we receive a great service. Today we had a critical payroll issue. Its end of year, HMRC reporting etc. Ticket raised an no response. Bot has raised further tickets. There is no email address to contact in a critical payroll situation. Very disappointing.

Reply from Employment Hero
Sold a self-guided implementation that can't be self-guided
The support staff are lovely, that's the only positive. Everything else has been a disaster. Now they have moved to a chat-only support model, which creates a fundamental problem: the chat clears when the page refreshes while you're working in the platform. Having to stop work to keep a support chat alive isn't practical. When I emailed to flag this, I got an auto-reply telling me to use the chat. That is precisely the issue I was writing about, I have no way to report a problem with the chat except through the chat itself.
Beyond that: broken links, failed template uploads, empty interactive demos, help articles that don't match what's actually on screen, resources referencing plan tiers that don't map to what I actually pay for, and an AI bot that gives conflicting information and throws "unable to load image" on every single response.
I signed up for software that would give me more time. It's created more problems than I started with. We're a 56-person team locked into a 12-month contract with no working complaints channel except the chatbot, ironic, given that Employment Hero publishes grievance policy templates for other businesses.
Simple and effective!
Employment Hero is a simple and effective way to manage staff, annual leave, assets, contracts, policies and much more all in one platform. It makes HR and payroll so much easier and more secure. It's also super easy to scale up as your business grows.

Not the best
Very hard to get help from a human. Businesses can change quickly and admins can come and go and getting help to train a new user is very hard

It’s user friendly and clear
10/10 easy to use, you won't regret it!
We have been using employment hero for a few years now and their ongoing development features assist us greatly.
We also use payroll and have never had an issue.
Would highly recommend if you are looking for an easy to use, seamless, end to end hr solution! Your team will also love it!
Great One stop shop!
We have been able to make work arounds if we run into any issues that don't align with what we need. The way EH is constantly evolving is a big green tick.
Supporting our Business
It supports our business needs but I feel it is expensive

So easy to run the week-to-week... so much useable data for production!
Ease of employees booking leave
The Employment Hero app and platform is easy to use as a employer and employee. Its so easy and quick to use for my team to book leave, they can see if it clashes with anyone and i can approve leave from anywhere as the app is great. It shows up to date balances of leave which is very handy.

We love using Employment Hero in our business. The platform is user-friendly and makes managing HR tasks so much more efficient. From onboarding to payroll, everything is streamlined in one place, which saves a lot of time. It’s been a really valuable tool for keeping things organised and running smoothly—highly recommend for any growing team!
No human support
Good platform but can’t get ahold of a single human through an email or live chat. AI tells me to submit a ticket through a link that’s out of service
Reliable Platform
Employment Hero is very easy to use and offers a wide range of features, many of which I haven’t fully explored yet. The platform is intuitive and makes managing HR tasks much more efficient. One of the standout benefits is its ability to integrate seamlessly with Xero, which is a big plus for streamlining payroll and accounting processes. Overall, it’s a reliable and user-friendly system with plenty of functionality to grow into.
EH is a great payroll platform
EH is a great payroll platform. Price for features means I will always recommend it for my clients
Easy to use
Easy to use, responsive and good user interface. The ability to use it for HR purposes, onboarding and then job adverts is perfect.
Really good app
I really appreciate the features available and the customer support is very helpful.
The feature I love the most is the Early Wage withdrawal.
