Key takeaways

  • By using Beti, Paycom’s automated payroll experience, employees were guided to find and fix errors in their pay before submission, drastically reducing the time that the HR team would have needed to fix these errors.
  • Before making the switch to Paycom, employees had to wait days, sometimes even weeks after payday, for payroll errors to be corrected.
  • Building employee engagement within an organization yields multiple benefits, including better productivity and retention. One way to build an engaging environment is by giving employees tools that make it easier to handle basic functions like viewing schedules, requesting time off and managing their personal information.
  • Accurate, easy-to-view data is essential to supporting any organization’s compliance strategy. With the right HR tech, it’s easier to avoid costly noncompliance risk.

This global cosmetics manufacturer produces and distributes beauty products in more than 80 countries. As a growing international organization, the company prioritizes innovation, employee experience and operational efficiency across its workforce.

Before implementing Paycom, the org relied on multiple disconnected platforms to manage HR and payroll processes. This fragmented approach created inefficiencies and made it difficult for employees to fully understand or effectively use the systems. As a result, no single system expert emerged, and HR processes became more complex than necessary.

The organization’s goal was to empower employees to focus on their work and ideas without being hindered by administrative issues or outdated HR technology. However, existing processes and tools often created unnecessary friction, limiting productivity and visibility.

After adopting Paycom, the manufacturer experienced significant improvements in efficiency and usability. One of the most impactful changes came from Beti, Paycom’s automated payroll experience. Payroll processing time was reduced from approximately two and a half days to just a few hours, dramatically improving operational efficiency.

Beti also increased transparency and accuracy by allowing employees to review and manage their own payroll information. This level of visibility gives employees confidence in their pay and allows them to quickly identify and resolve any discrepancies.

In addition to payroll improvements, Paycom simplified system access and reporting. The company reduced the number of systems and credentials required, going from multiple logins to a single software. Reporting was also streamlined, with a significant reduction in the number of templates needed to manage HR data.

Compliance is a critical focus for the cosmetics manufacturer, particularly in regions with strict regulatory requirements. Paycom helps support compliance efforts by centralizing data and reducing the risk of errors, which in turn helps lower potential legal costs.

Overall, Paycom has helped the org create a more efficient and employee-friendly HR environment. By automating processes, improving transparency and simplifying system access, the software allows employees to focus on higher-value work and supports continued business growth.
