Employment Hero Payroll goes beyond pure payroll into HR, onboarding and people management, at a low per employee price. For hospitality venues with high staff turnover and a lot of casuals, that combination of cheap payroll and HR tooling is genuinely useful. Here is our honest read.
Employment Hero Payroll combines payroll with HR features like onboarding, employee records and people management, charged at a low per employee rate. In hospitality, where staff turnover is high and you are constantly onboarding casuals, having payroll and the HR paperwork in one place removes a lot of repetitive admin.
The per employee pricing keeps it affordable for smaller teams and scales sensibly. The trade off is that the HR tooling only adds value if you use it, so a tiny, stable team that just needs to run pay might find a simpler payroll tool does the job. But for the typical hospitality venue cycling through casual staff, the combined payroll and HR approach is a genuinely good fit.
Pay staff and handle onboarding, records and people management in one place.
Affordable pricing that scales sensibly with your team.

Employment Hero Payroll suits hospitality venues with the high turnover and casual heavy teams that make onboarding and HR admin a constant chore. Combining that with payroll at a low per employee price is a strong fit.
