The short answer

Workzoom construction HR software manages project payroll costing by cost code, Red Seal and safety ticket tracking, and multi-site crew scheduling for construction companies across Canada. Field crews clock time against project codes from the mobile app, and labour costs appear in project reports the same day. The platform handles configurable union wage rates, certified payroll reporting, and prevailing wage calculations. Workzoom has no named construction customer in production yet; the engine has run since 2000 for named customers in Canada, the US, and the Bahamas. Pricing is $4 per employee per month per suite.

How it works

One connected record.How construction HR software runs on it.

01
Project cost codes in field time, not month-end
Field crews assign hours to project codes at the point of clock-in using the Workzoom mobile app. Payroll allocation flows from approved time to project cost reports automatically, giving project managers same-day visibility into labour costs without waiting for a reconciliation cycle.
02
Safety ticket expiry flagged before a site inspection
Every trade certification is configured with its issuing body, expiry period, and alert thresholds in Workzoom. The scheduling view flags employees with expired fall protection, confined space, or WHMIS certifications before site assignment, so supervisors catch the lapse before the stop-work order happens.
03
Union and non-union in one payroll run
Union employees and open-shop employees are configured with separate pay rules and reporting requirements, but both process in a single payroll cycle. Certified payroll reports for public sector projects are generated in the required format without manual assembly from paper timesheets.

Questions from construction teams

How Workzoom handles the specific HR, payroll, and workforce realities of construction operations.

Field employees clock in and out against specific project codes from the Workzoom mobile app, with GPS geo-fenced job site punching. Payroll allocation calculates automatically from approved time, assigning labour costs to each project, so project managers see real-time labour cost reports without waiting for month-end reconciliation. Payroll closes with verified hours instead of foremen guessing at cost codes on Friday. This construction time tracking software ties field hours to job costing instantly. Workzoom serves construction companies of 50 or more employees across active project sites.
Yes. Each trade certification is configured in Workzoom with its issuing body, expiry period, and alert thresholds. The platform flags expiring tickets at 90, 60, and 30 days and alerts both the employee and their site supervisor. Scheduling blocks site assignment for workers with expired fall protection, confined space, WHMIS, or working-at-heights tickets, preventing a stop-work order before it happens. This construction HR software gates site assignment on credential status. Workzoom serves construction companies of 50 or more employees managing trade certifications across crews.
Yes. Union agreement terms, including classification-based wage rates, fringe benefit contributions, overtime structures, and travel allowances, are configured in Workzoom and applied automatically each pay run. Certified payroll reports for public sector projects are generated in the required format without manual assembly from paper timesheets. A single run handles a dozen sites, multiple pay rates, and prevailing wage by job and classification. This construction payroll software automates union payroll calculations end to end. Workzoom serves construction companies of 50 or more employees on public and private work.
Yes. Workzoom's scheduling module supports multi-site deployment with crew assignments by project, trade classification, and certification requirement.

Crews can move between sites without losing scheduling history or credential status. This construction workforce management software keeps multi-site crew deployment visible in one platform. Workzoom serves construction companies of 50 or more employees running concurrent project sites.
Yes. Union and non-union employees are configured with separate pay rules and reporting requirements in Workzoom, and both process in a single payroll cycle.

Union and open-shop workers settle in one run with no manual separation. This HR software for construction companies handles mixed crews without two systems. Workzoom serves construction companies of 50 or more employees on blended union and non-union work.
Workzoom exports project labour cost data in formats compatible with most estimating and accounting platforms, including Sage, Viewpoint, and Procore.

Project cost code data flows from field time to payroll first, then out to your estimating tools. This construction HR software keeps job costing and estimating connected without manual re-keying. Workzoom serves construction companies of 50 or more employees coordinating field labour with project management systems.
Apprenticeship designations, trade levels, and sponsoring journeyman assignments are stored in each employee's profile in Workzoom.

This is particularly useful for contractors managing multiple apprentice classifications across active sites. Ratio compliance surfaces before the crew is deployed, not after an inspection. This construction workforce management software keeps apprentice ratios in view. Workzoom serves construction companies of 50 or more employees with apprenticeship programs.
Yes. Project completion bonuses, milestone bonuses, and productivity incentives are configured as payroll components in Workzoom and applied to individual employees or crews when approved by a project manager.

This construction payroll software handles milestone pay alongside standard wages. Workzoom serves construction companies of 50 or more employees running incentive-based compensation on projects.
