The smarter way to manage people, payroll and productivity. For small and medium businesses with big ambitions. 

At Employment Hero, we’re an ambitious group of people on a mission to make employment easier and more valuable for everyone. We like to stay ahead of the curve and provide our team with tools to innovate. We pride ourselves on our inclusive, innovative culture that rewards and recognises our team for great work. 

Since our inception in 2014, we’ve had enormous growth (we're talking 100% YoY). After taking Australia by storm, we set out to take on the rest of the world, launching internationally in New Zealand, The United Kingdom, Malaysia and Singapore – with many more to come. 

But our mission doesn't end there.

After working with small businesses across the globe, we saw how much employees needed a tool designed to fight the rising cost of living, gain control over their finances, and make work more rewarding. Enter Swag: a world-first employment superapp that redefines the way employees work, save and get paid. 

Oh, and we don’t want to toot our own horn (actually yes, we do), but others think we’re pretty cool too – we’ve received many awards for reaching some seriously ambitious goals including: 

* Deloitte Technology Fast 50 2022, ranked #38 in Australia 
* Raised $181M achieving unicorn status February 2022 
* LinkedIn Top 25 Startups 2021, ranked #2 in Australia

🇦🇺 PSA: Closing Loopholes Bill Part 2 was passed yesterday.

Yesterday marked a significant legislative milestone as Part 2 of the Closing Loopholes Bill was passed by Parliament, set to receive Royal Assent imminently. Following Part 1's passage late last year, which already had the local business community on high alert, these developments signal wide-ranging changes that will affect every organisation in Australia, so it’s absolutely critical that SME leaders understand what’s coming. 

We teamed up with Simon Obee from Employment Innovations (EI) to get your burning questions answered.

Flexible Work vs. Right to Disconnect

What are your views on the debate? Can you have both? 
Let us know in the comments 👇

Is it possible to blend flexibility with the right to disconnect? 🤔

Australia is set to pioneer legislation that lets employees tune out work messages after hours guilt-free. But what does this mean in practice?

Our CEO Ben Thompson weighs in for Dynamic Business:
"A balanced approach is required – one that respects employees’ rights to disconnect while preserving the advantages of flexible work and creating less complexity for managers.”

SMEs face a constantly growing list of challenges.

Our 2024 SME Sentiment Report addresses the pressing challenges Singaporean business leaders face, from inflation to employee retention, pairing them with actionable strategies to tackle them.

We spoke to Jackson Ng, COO and CTO at Azimut Group and a LinkedIn's Community Top Voice, who shares a unique insight into leveraging their multigenerational workforce as an opportunity for growth and innovation.

"To thrive, my approach is twofold: firstly, actively leveraging the unique strengths of each generation; and secondly, recognising that at the core of successful multigenerational collaboration lies a foundation of trust and respect."

Jackson encapsulates his strategy as "accept, not expect."

How are you maximising your multigenerational team's strengths?
