For ski resort teams
Ski resort HR software, built for the season
Seasonal onboarding, lift operator credentials, and J-1 payroll. Billing that drops with headcount.
Headcount climbs through November. It falls again by April. A lift operator's certification doesn't follow the season. Billing that drops with headcount, credentials that don't lapse.
The short answer
Workzoom ski resort HR software manages seasonal onboarding, lift operator credential tracking, J-1 visa non-resident payroll, and tip pool pay for mountain tourism operators in BC, Alberta, and across North America. The platform charges only for active headcount, so a resort with 1,100 peak and 200 year-round staff pays for 1,100 suites in peak season and 200 off-season, with no contracts or minimums. Lift operator certifications are tracked with expiry alerts. Workzoom has no named ski resort customer in production yet; the engine has run since 2000 for named customers in Canada and the Bahamas.

Tip pools, J-1 payroll, minimum-wage top-up.
Resort payroll mixes tipped roles, salaried management, and J-1 visa non-resident workers in the same pay cycle. Workzoom calculates tip pool distributions, applies minimum wage top-up where required, and handles J-1 non-resident tax treaty rules without manual override. Active headcount billing means off-season pay runs do not carry peak season cost.
