Workforce management software for hourly employees

About Homebase

Homebase provides a digital platform that helps businesses with hourly workers manage their operations more effectively. The platform includes tools for time tracking, employee scheduling, payroll processing, and messaging. Businesses can use any device to track employee hours, breaks, and overtime, which simplifies payroll preparation by reducing paperwork. Managers can create and adjust schedules online, sharing them instantly with their teams. The payroll service automatically calculates paychecks, processes direct deposits, and files payroll taxes, making payroll management easier for small businesses. Additionally, the built-in messaging feature allows for effective communication between managers and employees, even when they are not in the same location. Homebase primarily serves small businesses and generates revenue by charging for its software and services. The goal of Homebase is to streamline workforce management for businesses that rely on hourly workers.
