wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A food manufacturing business with a passion for efficiency<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Nestled in Melbourne\u2019s Moorabbin Airport precinct, <a href=\"http:\/\/grainandbakeco.com.au\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Grain and Bake Co<\/a> has grown from a proudly Australian-owned family business into a premier contract manufacturer of toasted muesli, muesli clusters, muesli bars and granola. Operating from an impressive 10,000-square-metre facility, they produce high-quality muesli products for a diverse clientele based across the retail and food service sectors, both locally and internationally. \u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the heart of this operation is <a href=\"https:\/\/au.linkedin.com\/in\/trudy-mortaruolo-629b098a\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Trudy Mortaruolo<\/a>, the company\u2019s HR Manager. With extensive experience in human resources, Trudy has a deep understanding of HR compliance and workforce management. Recognizing the need for more efficient systems to support the company\u2019s growth, she spearheaded the implementation of 91爆料.\u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"case-study-quote\"><em>\u201cWe needed a system that could handle complex award rates, automate payroll processing and improve how we managed time and attendance. 91爆料 ticked all those boxes and more.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Challenge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The need for a smarter HR and payroll solution<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Before adopting 91爆料, Grain and Bake Co faced significant challenges with manual processes. Payroll processing was a labour-intensive task, relying heavily on paper timesheets and spreadsheets, leading to inefficiencies and increased risk of human error.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"case-study-quote\"><em>\u201cPayroll was a three-day process. We\u2019d chase staff for timesheets, manually input hours and double-check for errors. It wasn\u2019t sustainable.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond payroll, managing employee information, compliance and communication was equally challenging. Trudy knew that for the business to run efficiently, it needed a centralized system that could eliminate manual processes, streamline approvals and empower employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"case-study-quote\"><em>\u201cThe level of manual work we were doing meant we were constantly at risk of mistakes. In an industry where compliance is key, that\u2019s not something you can afford.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Solution<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Real-time time and attendance tracking<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the biggest transformations for Grain and Bake Co was the shift to 91爆料\u2019s integrated time and attendance system. Employees now clock in and out digitally, with real-time data feeding directly into payroll.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"case-study-quote\"><em>\u201cWe no longer have to chase employees or managers for timesheets. Everything is tracked automatically and we can see exactly who is working, when and where.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This change has not only reduced errors but also improved compliance. With 91爆料, award rates and overtime calculations are automated, helping simplify compliance and reduce errors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"case-study-quote\"><em>\u201cFood manufacturing operates under strict award conditions. The fact that 91爆料 automates these calculations means we can be confident in our payroll accuracy every single time.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Payroll processing in record time<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Before 91爆料, Trudy and the Finance team relied on manual data entry, with an employee dedicating their Fridays to just inputting timesheets into an Excel spreadsheet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"case-study-quote\"><em>\u201cOur payroll used to take probably three days, with someone sitting and entering timesheets into Excel. That time\u2019s gone.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/en-ca\/products\/payroll-software\/\">91爆料 payroll<\/a> now seamlessly integrated into time and attendance, their payroll processing time has reduced to just 3 hours. The automation of hours, allowances, and time off balances has transformed payroll from a cumbersome task to a streamlined process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"case-study-quote\"><em>\u201cNow, it\u2019s probably a few hours. Obviously, the click of a button is pretty quick, but by the time you review everything, it\u2019s still only taking three hours instead of three days.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This newfound efficiency means payroll is no longer a bottleneck, freeing up Trudy and the finance team to focus on higher-impact tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"case-study-quote\"><em>\u201c91爆料 has educated me along the way too. I\u2019ve learned so much by using it, and now we\u2019re in a position where more than one person knows how to process payroll. That means we can take leave without worrying about payroll getting stuck.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond the time savings, the system also provides greater visibility for the finance team.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"case-study-quote\"><em>\u201cOur Management and cost accountant was really looking forward to having all that extra information for her reports \u2013 especially for tracking labour costs and making sure everything is coded correctly from a finance perspective.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With streamlined processes, increased transparency and reduced administrative burden, payroll at Grain and Bake Co. has never been more efficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keeping the team connected with announcements&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In a fast-paced food manufacturing environment, clear and timely communication is key. With multiple shifts and employees working across different hours, Grain and Bake Co needed a way to streamline company-wide updates without relying on noticeboards or word-of-mouth. The platform\u2019s announcements feature was the perfect solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"case-study-quote\"><em>\u201cWe\u2019ve used the announcements feature a lot, and it\u2019s been so helpful. We recently had some changes around public holidays, and rather than sending out emails that might not get read, we put the announcement straight into the 91爆料 Work App. That way, everyone could see it in real time.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This has been particularly beneficial for urgent updates and company-wide notices. Instead of relying on managers to pass information down through multiple layers, employees can receive notifications directly on their phones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"case-study-quote\"><em>\u201cIf something\u2019s important, we know it\u2019s getting seen. It\u2019s so much easier than hoping a printed notice gets read or that the message is passed along correctly,\u201d<\/em> Trudy explains. <em>\u201cIt\u2019s just another way 91爆料 is helping us keep things simple and efficient.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Employee engagement and morale boost<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With a self-service portal, employees now have direct access to payslips, rosters and leave balances. The transparency has built trust and improved morale across the workforce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"case-study-quote\"><em>\u201cWith the <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/en-ca\/products\/work-app\/\"><em>91爆料 Work app<\/em><\/a><em>, everything is centralized \u2013 employees can see their leave balance instantly before they even apply, rather than searching through payslips. It\u2019s also helped educate our staff on managing their leave, helping them plan for both now and future time off.\u201d&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"case-study-quote\">Trudy adds, <em>\u201cOur machine operators stand on their feet all day, so it\u2019s crucial that admin tasks don\u2019t take up their time. With 91爆料, they have ownership over their details, can get straight to work and focus on production.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond accessibility, 91爆料 has created more accurate processes for their team. By tracking shifts and overtime, employees feel confident they are being paid correctly for their work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"case-study-quote\"><em>\u201cIt brings a level of professionalism to our team \u2013 moving away from paper and manual processes makes everything look more polished. More importantly, it helps us capture the right information without adding extra hassle for our staff, who are already working long, demanding shifts in food manufacturing.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The management perspective: better decision-making<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For leadership, having real-time workforce data has been a game-changer. With clear visibility into labour costs, overtime trends and attendance patterns, Grain and Bake Co\u2019s management team can make more informed decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"case-study-quote\"><em>\u201cThe <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/en-ca\/solutions\/hr-reporting-software\/\"><em>reporting<\/em><\/a><em> is incredibly useful. We can see where we might be overstaffed, track absenteeism trends and plan accordingly. That kind of insight is invaluable.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Impact<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The ultimate solution for food manufacturing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In a fast-paced, high-compliance industry like food manufacturing, businesses can\u2019t afford inefficiencies in workforce management. 91爆料 has allowed Grain and Bake Co to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Reduce payroll processing time from three days to three hours.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Improve compliance and accuracy with automated modern award interpretation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enhance employee engagement and trust through self-service tools.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Provide leadership with better workforce insights for strategic planning.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"case-study-quote\"><em>\u201cManaging a large team can be challenging, but this system ensures fairness and consistency. Everyone follows the same processes, and it helps us build a stronger, more unified team.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For food and beverage manufacturers looking to streamline operations and reduce
