Empower Your Team with UKG Training That Actually Fits

You’ve made the investment. UKG Pro is up and running. Or maybe your team just onboarded with UKG Dimensions. But here’s the real question: is your workforce using it to its full potential—or just scratching the surface?

We’ve seen it time and again. Companies launch powerful tech and then fall short when it comes to training. And that’s not just a missed opportunity—it’s a barrier to productivity, clarity, and confidence.

“It’s Not the Tool. It’s How You Use It.”

At Mosaic Consulting Group, we know the system isn’t the problem. It’s the understanding of it. That’s where UKG Customized Training steps in—not as a one-size-fits-all solution, but as an immersive learning experience designed around your team’s actual needs.

Because why train your team to use features they’ll never touch? Why waste time on workflows they’ll never use? Our approach is built around what matters most to you.

Start With the Basics. Then Go Deep.

Sure, foundational training is important. We offer a strong starting point that helps your team learn how UKG works—what it can do, where to find things, how to get comfortable. But that’s just the warm-up. The real magic happens when we tailor the training to your business.

Your workflows. Your structure. Your pain points. All of it gets factored into the curriculum. Whether your payroll team is struggling with reporting or your managers need help with scheduling, we bring clarity where there’s confusion.

Super Users Aren’t Born. They’re Trained.

Let’s talk UKG Dimensions. This platform is powerful—but only in the right hands. That’s why our Super User Training focuses on ownership. We work closely with your key players, dive into common challenges, and equip them to support others on their teams. You don’t just build users—you build internal champions.

We’re Talking Toolkits, Not Just Training

Real learning doesn’t end after a Zoom call. That’s why our UKG training offering includes a set of personalized, practical tools your team can keep using long after the session ends.

  • Job Aides for quick answers. Think bite-sized instructions designed specifically for your environment. Need to remember how to run a report or adjust a timecard? It’s all there—fast and clear.
  • Playbooks for bigger-picture understanding. These are detailed manuals built around your modules, showing not just how to complete tasks, but how they affect your broader processes. Perfect for HR teams, payroll leads, and operations managers who want to connect the dots.
  • Instructional Videos for visual learners. We create step-by-step walkthroughs that your team can rewatch anytime. Personalized to your UKG setup, these videos reduce reliance on memory and turn your internal system into second nature.
  • Virtual Instructor-Led Training for teams that learn best in real-time. We go live with your team, presenting directly inside your UKG environment. These sessions are interactive, practical, and 100% relevant to how your people work.
  • Train-the-Trainer Programs to keep the knowledge flowing. If you have an internal learning and development team—or want to build one—we train them too. These sessions help your in-house experts become confident educators, whether they’re supporting payroll, HR, or operations.

The Result? A Team That Actually Uses UKG—Not Just Clicks Around It.

When your people know how to navigate UKG like experts, things move faster. Mistakes drop. Confidence rises. And suddenly, your HR and payroll teams have more time to focus on strategy instead of support tickets.

Training Isn’t a Checkbox. It’s a Power-Up.

You’ve invested in UKG. Now invest in the people using it. Our customized training turns your platform into a productivity engine. Not by teaching every feature—but by teaching the right ones, in the right way, to the right people.

Let’s make sure your team is doing more than logging in. Let’s make sure they’re leveraging it.

Is Payroll Still Stealing Your Focus? It Shouldn’t Be

You don’t think about emergency payroll—until you have to. A hurricane knocks out operations. Key personnel are suddenly unavailable. A system glitch derails the usual process. Whatever the scenario, one truth remains: people still need to get paid. No delays. No excuses.

At Mosaic Consulting Group, we’ve built an Emergency Payroll solution for those moments when business as usual goes out the window. When there’s chaos in the background, we make sure payroll stays steady.

Because a Missed Paycheck Isn’t Just a Mistake

It’s a breach of trust. It causes stress. It can damage your reputation faster than any public relations crisis. Your team depends on consistency—especially during uncertain times. That’s why our emergency payroll service isn’t just reactive. It’s fast, secure, and built to handle pressure.

Three Ways to Get It Done—Even When Things Are Falling Apart

Every situation is different. That’s why we offer three levels of emergency payroll service—because not every client needs the same kind of backup.

For teams who can almost handle it on their own—but want expert eyes watching every move—we offer Guidance. Think of it like mission control. We don’t press the buttons, but we walk you through every step to make sure nothing’s missed.

If your payroll team is down or overwhelmed, Basic Payroll steps in. You provide the data, we take it from there—processing, reporting, and handling everything until your people are paid and your reports are in order.

And when you just need it done, fast and right—Just Pay People is the lifeline. No timekeeping? No problem. We replicate the last period, confirm key changes with you, and make sure your team gets compensated. It’s not business as usual, but it’s business handled.

Preparedness Isn’t Paranoia—It’s Leadership

Emergencies don’t always knock. And they rarely give you time to prep. The companies that come out on top aren’t the ones who scramble—they’re the ones who planned ahead. That’s what our Emergency Payroll offering is built for: making sure you never get caught flat-footed when your team needs you most.

You Keep the Company Running. We Keep the Paychecks Moving.

Our dedicated consultants know how to operate under pressure. We’ve handled emergency payroll situations with speed, accuracy, and clarity. We don’t just process data—we guide, support, and adapt. And we do it without drama, even when everything else feels like a crisis.

A Calm Voice in the Middle of the Storm

We’ve seen what can happen when systems fail. We’ve also seen how powerful it is when a company shows up for its people in tough times. Payroll becomes more than a transaction—it becomes a symbol of stability. Our job is to protect that symbol.

Ready When You’re Not

Even if you don’t need us now, knowing Mosaic Consulting Group is on standby changes how you think about risk. Our Emergency Payroll Services give you coverage, clarity, and confidence—no matter what’s going on around you.

Partner with Mosaic Consulting Group and make sure payroll is never the thing that breaks under pressure.

When the Business Storm Hits, HR Shouldn’t Lose the Compass

What happens when the winds shift unexpectedly in business? Budgets tighten, strategies pivot, and priorities shuffle. But while the storm brews, one department must remain steady, purpose-driven, and people-focused: HR.

At Mosaic Consulting Group, we believe HR isn’t just a support function—it’s the pulse of every organization. So, how do HR leaders hold the line when corporate challenges pull them in different directions? How do they stay human-centered and impact-driven amid operational chaos?

Let’s talk about it:

 Stay Grounded When Everything Shifts

What happens when the winds of business shift overnight? Budgets shrink, strategies pivot, and departments scramble to keep up. But through it all, HR has to do more than survive—it has to lead. At Mosaic Consulting Group, we know that no matter what kind of turbulence a company faces, HR can’t afford to lose sight of its core mission: people.

Ask the Right Questions

“What does this mean for our team?” “How do we protect our culture while responding to change?” HR leaders who ask better questions create better outcomes. Navigating corporate challenges starts with translating business decisions into human terms—and making sure your people are supported every step of the way.

Data is Power—If You Use It Right

Not all data is created equal. It’s easy to report metrics. It’s harder—but more valuable—to use those metrics to drive decision-making. Focus on insights that matter: turnover patterns, engagement signals, and performance trends. These numbers tell the real story and allow HR to act with precision.

Keep the Compass Aligned

Staying aligned with leadership means staying in the loop. Regular conversations with executive teams, department heads, and frontline managers help HR stay proactive, not reactive. When you understand where the business is headed, you can align HR initiatives to support the mission—without compromising your people-first values.

Tech Isn’t the Answer. It’s the Assistant.

Automation and AI can help reduce administrative overload, but they don’t replace judgment, empathy, or strategy. Use tech to open up space—so your HR team can focus on conversations, leadership coaching, and long-term planning. At Mosaic, we help our partners implement tools that create clarity, not chaos.

Lead with Consistency and Calm

Not all leadership is about bold moves. Sometimes it’s the quiet things that matter: keeping recurring meetings on the calendar, continuing performance check-ins, sticking to your hiring goals. When everything else feels uncertain, that sense of normalcy builds trust—and signals strength.

Don’t Let Culture Take a Backseat

The fastest way to lose your people? Let culture become an afterthought. When times are tough, HR must be the guardian of what makes your company unique. Double down on DEI, keep your ear to the ground through pulse surveys, and continue celebrating what makes your people great.

We Don’t Just Consult. We Join the Team.

At Mosaic Consulting Group, our HR Outsourcing services give you more than advice. We roll up our sleeves, integrate into your team, and help you stay focused on what matters. Whether you’re facing growth, complexity, or unexpected changes, our consultants are here to help you lead through it all—with clarity and confidence.

Let’s Steady the Ship Together

Your HR goals don’t need to take a backseat just because the business is shifting. With the right partner, you can move through change without losing your way.

What Truly Drives Employee Retention in a Remote Work Environment?

Join any virtual team, and you’ll likely find the standard perks: flexible schedules, work-from-home stipends, and digital onboarding packages. While these benefits can make a positive impression, do they truly create lasting loyalty?

At Mosaic Consulting Group, we’ve worked with countless organizations that have invested heavily in recruiting top talent, only to watch them leave within a year or two. The pattern is familiar: great onboarding, attractive benefits, and yet… retention slips.

So we started asking a different kind of question—not what attracts employees, but what actually connects them to your organization in a way that lasts?

The answer isn’t found in material perks. It’s found in how employees feel.

“If your people don’t feel seen, supported, and understood, they’ll eventually look elsewhere—no matter how cool the office is.”

– Mosaic Consultant

Let’s talk about what really matters.

What Makes People Stay?

It’s not complicated. Employees want to do meaningful work. They want to feel recognized. They want clarity in where they’re going. And they want to know someone has their back.

That’s why we use a people-first lens when helping clients shape retention strategies. It’s not about reinventing the wheel—it’s about going deeper.

We often ask our clients:

  • Do your employees feel like their efforts matter?

  • Are they equipped to grow, learn, and lead?

  • Do they see where they fit into the bigger picture?

  • Can they trust your leadership?

If the answers aren’t clear, it’s time to rethink the foundation.

Recognition That Resonates

True recognition isn’t performative—it’s personal. Employees don’t want a template thank-you note. They want to know what they did well, why it mattered, and how it contributed to the bigger picture. Recognition tied to real impact builds confidence, engagement, and a sense of belonging.

Tools, Not Just Talk

We often hear organizations say they want innovation—but do their teams have what they need to actually innovate? Success requires more than encouragement. It demands enablement: access to resources, clarity of expectations, mentorship, and systems that support—not block—momentum.

“Enablement is how you turn potential into performance. When people feel empowered, they stick around.”

Clarity Builds Commitment

Uncertainty is one of the fastest paths to disengagement. When employees don’t know where they stand or where they’re going, motivation fades. Alignment—on roles, responsibilities, and direction—isn’t just about communication. It’s about trust. And trust is what keeps people committed through change, growth, and challenge.

Leadership That Feels Human

At the heart of any successful retention strategy is leadership that understands people are more than job titles. Employees need leaders who listen, who communicate during change, who make time for development—not just deadlines.

When we work with organizations, we help leaders build not only strategic plans but relational strength. Because employees don’t leave companies. They leave managers.

What Does This Mean For You?

Retention isn’t about holding on—it’s about giving people reasons to stay. The companies that do it best are the ones who focus on meaningful recognition, true enablement, honest alignment, and strong, supportive leadership.

Yes, perks are nice. But they’re not the reason someone decides to build a career with your company. That decision is emotional, relational, and deeply human.

At Mosaic Consulting Group, we help businesses build the kind of environments where employees don’t just stay—they thrive. Let’s talk about how your organization can strengthen retention from the inside out.

Is Your UKG System Aligned with Your Business Goals?

,

Implementing UKG software is a significant milestone for any organization—it sets the foundation for better workforce management, streamlined HR processes, and stronger data visibility. But as your organization evolves, so do your needs. That’s why Optimization Planning is a critical next step in your UKG journey.

At Mosaic Consulting Group, we offer a strategic approach to system optimization that helps organizations maximize the value of their UKG investment, ensuring the system continues to support business priorities as they grow and shift.

What Is Optimization Planning?

Optimization Planning is a structured review of your current UKG system configuration, processes, and performance. Our team works closely with you to assess the present state of your setup, identify areas of opportunity, and deliver clear, prioritized recommendations that align with your goals.

This isn’t a one-size-fits-all service. It’s a thoughtful, tailored evaluation that considers where your organization is today—and where you’re headed next.

Our Optimization Planning package includes:

  • Strategic working sessions with stakeholders to understand how current system configurations impact your people and processes.

  • A collaborative exploration of your wishlist for the future state—what changes you’d like to see, and what’s most important moving forward.

  • A final report with key findings and recommendations, including prioritization based on industry best practices and your success criteria.

When Is Optimization the Right Move?

We often partner with organizations that are navigating transitions or planning for growth. Here are common scenarios where Optimization Planning adds value:

  • Your business has expanded or experienced acquisitions

  • You’ve had leadership or team turnover in HR or payroll

  • You’re preparing for new module implementations

  • You want to strengthen internal processes following a lift-and-shift or rapid deployment

  • You’re looking to refine training, workflows, or user adoption

  • You need support from UKG subject matter experts to take the system to the next level

In each of these moments, Optimization Planning creates an opportunity to ensure your system continues to align with your organizational structure, policies, and goals.

Why Optimization Matters

UKG offers a robust platform with powerful capabilities—optimization helps ensure those capabilities are fully aligned with how your organization operates. Whether it’s streamlining workflows, improving user experience, enhancing reporting, or preparing for new growth, a strategic system review allows you to fine-tune your configuration for maximum impact.

“Optimization isn’t about changing what works—it’s about making sure it works in the way that best supports your business.”

With the right approach, organizations can enhance efficiency, strengthen compliance, and improve employee experience—all while maintaining system integrity and scalability.

A Forward-Looking Approach

As your workforce grows and your systems mature, your UKG configuration should evolve alongside it. Optimization Planning provides the strategic insight needed to support this evolution—whether you’re enhancing current processes or preparing for what’s next.

At Mosaic Consulting Group, we bring deep UKG expertise, hands-on experience, and a collaborative mindset to every engagement. Our goal is to help you build a system that not only supports your daily operations but also empowers long-term success.

Let’s ensure your UKG system is built to support the future of your business.

Are Your Reports Telling the Right Story?

At Mosaic Consulting Group, we believe data is only as powerful as the way it’s presented. A well-designed report doesn’t just display numbers—it answers questions, supports decisions, and helps your team take action. But too often, we see reports that are either overwhelming, underwhelming, or just plain hard to read.

The good news? It doesn’t take a total overhaul to improve your reporting experience. Sometimes, it just takes a shift in perspective—and a few smarter design choices.

Reporting Isn’t Just About the Data

Many organizations rely on standard UKG Pro reports for day-to-day tracking. But when the business needs evolve—especially when leadership is asking deeper questions—those default reports can fall short.

That’s where Business Intelligence (BI) comes in. UKG Pro’s BI tools (also known as People Analytics or Cognos Analytics) offer the flexibility to design reports that are visual, interactive, and personalized. Whether you’re monitoring labor costs, reviewing benefits usage, or running a pre-payroll check, custom BI reports give you the clarity and depth you need.

How Design Shapes Decision-Making

Good reporting design is less about technical complexity and more about intentional structure. The way information flows—where headers are placed, how data is grouped, when summaries are shown—can dramatically affect how the report is understood.

For instance, having both summary and detail in the same report allows users at different levels of the organization to access the data they need without having to request a separate version. Adding elements like prompt selections, timestamps, and clear labels ensures every report can be traced, validated, and trusted.

As Robin Hoelscher, one of our reporting experts, says:
“The best reports don’t make you think. They just make sense.”

One Report, Many Perspectives

Pages, when used thoughtfully, help create those “makes sense” moments. They allow you to structure a single report for multiple audiences. A payroll report might include a clean summary for leadership, followed by audit-ready pages for the finance team. A headcount report could show trends by department on one page and regional breakdowns on another.

But we don’t stop at layout. We also help clients bring in real-time logic: fields that update based on the latest data, calculations that flag anomalies, and visuals that show trends at a glance. This is what elevates a report from being a static document to a true decision-support tool.

Real Use Cases, Real Impact

Here’s how we’ve seen organizations benefit from better BI report design:

  • Faster audits: When pre-check reports are broken down clearly by issue (like missing direct deposit info or zero net pays), problems get fixed before they reach payroll.

  • Simpler compliance tracking: One of our clients reduced their manual audit process by 60% after switching to a multi-page employee change report built around status changes, terminations, and leave activity.

  • Leadership visibility: High-level metrics, paired with contextual detail, give executives what they need to make faster, data-driven decisions—without digging.

It’s Not About Fancy Reports—It’s About Functional Ones

We’re not here to make flashy dashboards no one uses. We’re here to help you build reports that matter—ones that support your goals, reflect your processes, and make your job easier.

So if you’ve ever felt like your reports aren’t quite telling the whole story, or you’re constantly pulling from multiple sources to get a complete view, it might be time for a better approach.

At Mosaic Consulting Group, we specialize in BI report design that’s clear, efficient, and built to scale with your business. Let’s make your reports work harder—so you don’t have to.

Building a Thriving Workforce: How Wellness and Culture Shape Success

Every January, millions of employees set personal goals—fitness, mental health, nutrition—but by spring, many struggle to maintain them. Work schedules, stress, and lack of support can quickly derail even the best intentions. As an employer, you have a unique opportunity to not only foster a culture of wellness but also align it with your organization’s long-term success. Mosaic Consulting Group helps businesses do just that, transforming HR strategy into a driver of both employee well-being and business growth.

The Connection Between Workplace Culture and Wellness

A strong, people-first workplace culture does more than improve morale—it enhances engagement, productivity, and retention. Studies show that employees who feel supported in their wellness efforts are more engaged, take fewer sick days, and perform better overall. That’s why organizations that integrate wellness into their culture see tangible business benefits.

At Mosaic Consulting Group, we provide Culture Consulting Services that help companies create an environment where employees thrive, personally and professionally. By aligning HR strategy with workforce well-being, we help organizations build a culture that supports both employee development and business performance.

The Cost of Guesswork: Why Businesses Struggle with Change

Change isn’t just inevitable—it’s relentless. New technologies, shifting regulations, and evolving workforce expectations keep organizations on their toes. Yet, too many businesses dive into change without a plan, hoping for the best but often ending up with inefficiencies, compliance risks, and frustrated employees.

So, what’s the secret to making change work for you instead of against you? It’s not luck—it’s strategy. And when it comes to workforce management, UKG is a powerful solution—but only if it’s implemented, optimized, and aligned correctly with your business needs. That’s where Mosaic Consulting Group steps in.

The Chaos of Unstructured Change

Have you ever rolled out a system upgrade, only to find employees confused, processes disrupted, and productivity tanking? You’re not alone. Nearly 70% of transformation initiatives fail, according to research by McKinsey, and the culprit is often a lack of preparation.

When businesses don’t take a step back to assess where they are before moving forward, they end up layering new tools onto old problems, creating more complexity instead of streamlining operations. And with UKG offering a comprehensive suite of solutions, businesses need the right guidance to ensure they’re fully leveraging the platform to its highest potential.

Strategic Assessments: The Smartest Move You Can Make

A strategic assessment isn’t just another corporate exercise—it’s the difference between a smooth transition and an expensive misstep. At Mosaic Consulting Group, we turn uncertainty into clarity by identifying gaps, inefficiencies, and opportunities before major changes take place. We ensure you’re making the most of UKG Pro, UKG Ready, or UKG Dimensions so your workforce management strategies are effective, efficient, and scalable.

Here’s what that means for you:

1. Maximize UKG’s Capabilities

Upgrading or implementing a UKG system is a game-changer—if done correctly. We help you unlock the full power of UKG by aligning its features with your business goals. From optimizing automation in payroll processing to enhancing HR self-service capabilities, we make sure UKG works for you, not against you.

2. Save Hours of Wasted Work

Many companies operate on outdated or inefficient processes without realizing it. We uncover bottlenecks and redundancies, helping you optimize workflows and reduce unnecessary manual work. By leveraging UKG’s automation tools and analytics, we can significantly cut down on administrative tasks, freeing up HR teams to focus on strategic initiatives.

3. Stay Ahead of Compliance Risks

Regulations don’t wait for you to catch up. Whether it’s wage laws, tax regulations, or industry-specific labor requirements, we ensure your UKG system is set up to keep you compliant at all times. We help configure reporting, alerts, and workflows within UKG to mitigate risks before they turn into costly penalties.

4. Make Your Workforce Management Future-Proof

Business growth comes with new challenges—whether it’s scaling operations, managing multi-state teams, or adapting to industry changes. We ensure your UKG system is built to evolve with your business, incorporating flexible configurations that allow for seamless expansions, acquisitions, or structural shifts.

5. Boost Employee Engagement with Smarter Workforce Strategies

Nothing frustrates employees more than clunky systems and slow responses to their needs. By optimizing scheduling, self-service options, and data accessibility, we help improve engagement and retention. UKG’s workforce solutions offer powerful tools for time tracking, shift scheduling, and payroll accuracy—Mosaic helps you implement them effectively to drive employee satisfaction.

How Mosaic Consulting Group Helps You Win

UKG is a powerful platform, but getting the most out of it requires expert strategy, precise implementation, and ongoing optimization. That’s what Mosaic Consulting Group delivers.

A Day in the Life of an HR Manager Without UKG (Versus With UKG!)

HR managers are the backbone of any organization, juggling everything from payroll and compliance to employee engagement and scheduling. But without the right tools, their day can quickly become a never-ending cycle of manual tasks, inefficiencies, and frustration. Let’s take a look at how an HR manager’s day plays out without UKG—versus the streamlined, productive day they have with it.
 

8:00 AM – Starting the Day 

Without UKG: The day starts with a flood of emails—employees asking about missed punches, payroll discrepancies, and time-off requests lost in the shuffle of paperwork. The HR manager scrambles to pull together spreadsheets and sift through disorganized records to find the right information. 

With UKG: The HR manager logs into their UKG dashboard, where all workforce data is centralized. Employee requests are organized, payroll information is easily accessible, and attendance records are updated in real-time—eliminating the early morning scramble.
 

10:00 AM – Payroll Chaos or Payroll Confidence? 

Without UKG: Processing payroll means manually entering data from multiple sources, double-checking numbers, and hoping no errors slip through. A miscalculation could mean delayed payments or compliance issues, leading to a backlog of employee complaints. 

With UKG: Payroll is automated, accurate, and compliant. UKG Pro ensures calculations are precise, tax compliance is seamless, and payments are scheduled effortlessly. The HR manager spends this time focusing on strategy instead of crunching numbers. 

12:00 PM – Lunch Break… or Not? 

Without UKG: A lunch break is wishful thinking as the HR manager tracks down missing timesheets and manually inputs data for scheduling adjustments. Last-minute shift swaps require endless phone calls and back-and-forth emails. 

With UKG: UKG Pro Workforce Management handles scheduling automatically, factoring in availability, compliance rules, and business needs. Employees can swap shifts through self-service tools, freeing up the HR manager to actually enjoy their lunch. 

 

2:00 PM – Performance Reviews or Paperwork Nightmares? 

Without UKG: Performance evaluations are a logistical nightmare, with scattered documentation, outdated reports, and missing feedback. HR spends hours compiling reviews, leaving little time to provide meaningful insights. 

With UKG: UKG’s performance management tools centralize employee feedback, automate review cycles, and offer real-time performance analytics. The HR manager can focus on guiding career development rather than chasing down forms. 

4:00 PM – Compliance Headaches or Compliance Confidence? 

Without UKG: HR is buried in compliance paperwork, manually tracking labor laws, industry regulations, and internal policies. Any missed requirement could mean costly penalties. 

With UKG: Compliance tracking is automated. UKG continuously updates labor law requirements and flags potential issues, ensuring the company stays ahead of audits and regulations with minimal stress. 

5:00 PM – Wrapping Up the Day 

Without UKG: The HR manager leaves exhausted, knowing they’ll face the same inefficiencies tomorrow. Burnout is real, and the lack of streamlined processes means the workload never eases. 

With UKG: The HR manager logs off with confidence, knowing payroll is accurate, schedules are set, compliance is handled, and employees have the tools they need. With UKG, they can focus on what truly matters—building a great workplace. 

The Bottom Line 

HR managers don’t have to be stuck in a cycle of inefficiency. UKG transforms workforce management, making HR processes seamless, automated, and stress-free. But getting the most out of UKG requires the right expertise. 

That’s where Mosaic Consulting Group comes in. As a trusted UKG partner, we help businesses implement, optimize, and fully leverage UKG solutions. From configuring payroll to fine-tuning workforce management, our team ensures your UKG system works exactly how you need it to. 

The Hidden Cost of Payroll Headaches (And How to Fix It)

Payroll should be seamless, yet for many businesses, it’s a never-ending source of stress. According to the IRS, nearly one-third of employers make payroll errors each year, leading to costly fines and frustrated employees. But payroll isn’t just about compliance—it’s about trust. Employees rely on accurate, timely paychecks, and when things go wrong, morale takes a hit.

So, what’s the real cost of payroll inefficiency? And more importantly, how can you eliminate it?

The Payroll Time Trap

How much time does your team spend on payroll each pay period? Between tracking hours, managing deductions, processing tax filings, and handling last-minute corrections, it adds up. A 2023 survey by Deloitte found that HR teams spend up to 40% of their time on administrative payroll tasks. That’s time that could be used for strategic growth, employee engagement, or simply getting back to what matters most—your business.

What if you could reclaim that time?

Why Payroll Mistakes Hurt More Than Your Budget

A missed paycheck or an incorrect tax withholding doesn’t just result in financial penalties—it erodes employee trust. Payroll errors are among the top three reasons employees leave a company, according to a study by Kronos. And when employees don’t feel confident about their pay, productivity drops, and engagement suffers.

The solution? Precision. Accuracy. Automation.

Turning Payroll from a Burden into a Competitive Advantage

Payroll shouldn’t be a source of stress—it should be a seamless, reliable process that supports your business. That’s where Mosaic Consulting Group comes in. Our team ensures that payroll runs smoothly, efficiently, and in full compliance with regulations, so you never have to second-guess calculations or worry about audits.
