The market need

## Small teams should not need a stack of systems to manage people.

Spreadsheets, email threads and disconnected files become harder to control as a team grows. Important employee information gets repeated, approvals slow down and routine HR work takes attention away from the business.

workit brings recruitment, onboarding, employee records, compliance, leave, policies, performance and offboarding into one connected platform, supported by an Australian-based team.

### One clear price

$5 per employee per month with all available HR modules included. Optional implementation services are priced separately.

### Flexible rollout

Choose self-setup or paid implementation services, with scope and timing based on your requirements and readiness.

### Real local support

Speak to a real person, backed by an Australian-based business, support team and development team.

How workit helps

Modules in detail

## Every workit module, applied to a small business.

Small business HR software should not be sold in tiers. workit includes every module for one per-employee price, so a 20-person business gets the same platform as a 2,000-person one.
