Payroll

Payday shouldn't dependon what people remember

Friday afternoon, someone reconstructs the week from text messages, paper timesheets, and recollection. Every hour that comes out wrong costs twice — once to pay it, and again to argue about it.

Where it's costing you

Payroll is where every loose end in the week finally arrives.

Reconstructing a week takes a day

Texts, paper, and memory get assembled into a payroll run. That is a coordinator's Friday, every pay period, indefinitely.

Overtime is discovered, not decided

By the time a caregiver's hours cross the line, the shift has been worked and the money is owed. The scheduler never saw it coming.

Disputes cost more than the hours

A caregiver who has to argue about a check remembers it long after it's corrected. Turnover starts in small places like this.

How Rivana closes it

  1. 1
    Hours come from the visit

    Check-in and check-out are the record. Reviewed estimates are reconciled with your payroll provider.

  2. 2
    Review the agency's workweek and rates

    Rivana shows a 40-hour selected-period overtime estimate. Confirm the applicable workweek, overtime and leave policies with your payroll provider; it is not payroll or a state-specific compliance preset.

  3. 3
    Exceptions surface before close

    Missing check-outs and unverified visits appear while there is still time to resolve them.

What changes

The hours are already there. Payroll becomes a review.

Hours are ready for review

Nothing has to be reconstructed, because nothing was lost.

Overtime is a decision

You see a caregiver approaching the limit while you can still do something about it.

Fewer disputes

When the record and the check agree, there is nothing to argue about.

Is this your biggest gap, or just the loudest?

Payroll and timesheets is one of nineteen jobs the Agency Health Check scores. It takes about four minutes and shows you which one to close first, and which to leave alone.

Common questions

No. It produces accurate hours. Your provider still runs the payroll.
