Shift coverage
Compliance gets the headlines. The architecture is why it actually works on every pay run.
Scheduled shifts flow into timekeeping for actual-versus-planned comparison, and approved hours reach payroll with premiums pre-calculated. No exports, no middleware, no reconciliation step.
Only the mismatches surface for a manager: a short punch, an unplanned double. Clean time flows straight to payroll, at about 60 seconds a day of manager attention.
Approved leave updates the schedule, fills the vacancy with a qualified match, and reaches payroll without re-entry or a spreadsheet step.
Every requirement below is handled by the platform on every pay run, not configured per-customer.
Overtime thresholds and premium rates are set by each province's employment standards legislation, not by Workzoom. You configure the rule for every jurisdiction you operate in, and Workzoom applies the correct threshold and premium on every pay run.
Statutory holiday pay is calculated as an average of earnings over the lookback window each province sets, not a flat day's wage. Workzoom calculates the averaging window from actual pay history on the employee record, and the recognized holiday calendar is configured per province.
Alberta handles statutory holidays differently than Ontario, and Quebec has distinct parental leave rules. Workzoom applies the correct provincial leave entitlements and balance tracking for every province and territory you operate in.
Coverage across every building, shift and season is built for long-term care, municipal and multi-site operations. Silvera for Seniors moved 400 staff across 36 Calgary buildings to connected scheduling and self-serve leave on Workzoom.
faster payroll after switching
Northern Sunrise County's first payroll ran on January 15, less than three months after project start, the fastest and most accurate payroll the county had seen, across a seasonal workforce of 90 to 140 employees.
Switching to Workzoom has made managing payroll and timekeeping so much easier. The system is straightforward and works really well. We were able to process our first payroll faster than we expected, and now we feel much more confident in how we're handling everything. It's been a big help.
The story
The story
Canadian workforce management has to hold coverage across sites, shifts and seasons rather than a single building on a fixed headcount. Silvera for Seniors, a Calgary non-profit, schedules 400 employees across 36 buildings from one system, with time capture and leave flowing into the same schedule.
Northern Sunrise County, a rural Alberta municipality, runs a seasonal workforce that swings from about 90 employees in the slower season to 140 at peak. Its published story describes schedule changes flowing to timekeeping and payroll without requiring a different operating model at each scale.
The story
County of Renfrew, Ontario's largest county, centralized time-off requests for over 900 employees inside Workzoom, replacing disconnected spreadsheets that varied by department. Its published result: 32 new hires onboarded in three months without increasing HR headcount, with safety training and time off running on the same platform.
Approved leave updates the schedule and reaches payroll without a manual step. Evaluate your own leave policy and approval chain against that published workflow before comparing providers.
