Why HR Professionals Recommend Paycom
For over a decade Paycom has been helping payroll and HR professionals streamline their processes and track and report on pertinent employee information.
The Paycom Difference is . . .
Consolidate Your HR Applications
- Paycom offers an online, single-application solution for Background Checks, HR Information Management, Benefit Administration and COBRA Compliance. Its integration with payroll eliminates the need to maintain multiple systems and reduces errors and inconsistency in data.
Eliminate the Re-Keying of Duplicate Information
- Whether you start by entering an applicant in the system for a background check, or a new hire for HR, time and attendance, or payroll, you only enter the data once and the employee information is populated throughout the system.
Automate the Background Check to Hiring Process
- Once applicant information is entered and a background check is run, if hirable, simply click the Hire button to populate the HR system. You can also easily run current employee background checks all done in compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA).
Customize the System to Track What You Need
- Track any company-specific and/or compliance-driven information you want to associate with an employee with over 252 custom fields. We can setup drop-down lists, text fields or date fields for you to track salary history permits, certifications, training, company property, hire source, termination reason, and much more.
- Setup future start dates with our Effective Dating feature.
Create Custom Reports
- Any information stored in the system can be reported on with our point and click Report Writer. Filter the report to your specifications. Search by active and terminated employees, exempt and non-exempt employees, and subtotal by company, employee or department. You can report across multiple FEINs, save your report formats and share them with other users.
Comply With Confidence
- From COBRA to Workers Comp, OSHA to FMLA,
Paycom’s system helps you to track required data and retain your records online and we do not purge your information for active or terminated employees so you always have access to your historical information. Plus there’s an audit trail for all system changes.
Manage Your Benefit Administration Online
- Paycom helps employers to easily manage new hire and open enrollment benefit administration by offering simple employer setup for each plan and benefit group and allowing employees to select their benefits online. Our Batch Editing feature allows you to update new deduction amounts for all employees or groups of employees at one time.
Offer Employees Self-Service
- Employees can see which benefits they are eligible to enroll in and model a sample paycheck based on the new deductions. They can change their W-4 information, and throughout the year they can view and print their pay statements for proof of employment and income verification, check available PTO hours, and their 401k contributions.
Automate Time Off Requests
- Employees can request time off and supervisors can approve or deny it all within the online system. Both can add comments and supervisors can see all requests and the employee’s available time. Approved time off is automatically entered on the employee’s time card.
Integrate COBRA Compliance
- True integration reduces errors in adhering to the complicated rules of COBRA compliance. Simply adding a healthcare deduction or terminating an employee in the system prompts you to generate a COBRA letter. Paycom sends your required notices, handles the date tracking and premium payments and the correspondence with those who elect COBRA benefits. In addition the system handles all Stimulus COBRA requirements and we credit any subsidy reimbursements to you each payroll.
