Cross-Border HR, Payroll, and Workforce Management Software

See how StarGarden helps organizations manage US-Canada workforce complexity in one integrated system.

US-Canada organizations manage complex workforce requirements

Cross-border teams often manage payroll, time, benefits, reporting, workflows, and workforce processes across different employee groups, business structures, and operating requirements. That complexity increases when organizations need consistent control, better visibility, and less manual handling across borders.

• Managing US and Canadian workforce processes in one connected environment
• Handling different pay rules, employee groups, earnings, deductions, and benefits across entities and jurisdictions
• Keeping time, approvals, schedules, and payroll aligned without duplicate entry or disconnected processes
• Maintaining auditability, reporting visibility, and secure access across different user populations and locations
• Supporting onboarding, employee changes, and ongoing workforce administration across borders
• Reducing manual effort while improving consistency in HR, payroll, and workforce operations

How StarGarden supports cross-border operations

• Connect HR, time, and payroll: StarGarden brings HR, payroll, time and attendance, work planning, approvals, and reporting together in one integrated system, helping organizations reduce duplicate entry and improve control across US-Canada workforce operations.
• Support complex payroll structures: StarGarden supports multiple payroll frequencies, multiple employee groups, configurable earnings and deductions, multiple rates per employee, retro-pay, off-cycle processing, direct deposit, and year-end processing including T4 and W2 outputs.
• Handle benefits, balances, and deductions with more flexibility: StarGarden helps organizations manage benefit plans, deductions, taxable benefits, accruals, caps, rollovers, and employee or employer contribution rules in one environment, with the ability to define defaults by group and override where required.

• Support employee lifecycle processes across borders: StarGarden supports employee records, applicant tracking, onboarding workflows, offboarding, rehire processes, and workflow-driven employee changes so organizations can manage workforce movement more consistently across Canada and the United States.
• Use workflow to standardize approvals and administration: StarGarden’s workflow toolset helps automate approvals, route tasks, support escalations, and align business processes with organizational structures, helping reduce manual follow-up and improve consistency.

• Improve reporting, auditability, and visibility: StarGarden supports standard reports, dashboards, ad hoc reporting, and detailed transaction history so organizations can improve oversight across payroll, HR, and workforce activity.
• Give employees and managers practical self-service: StarGarden gives employees and managers self-service access for time entry, leave requests, approvals, pay review, schedules, workflow requests, and key workforce information, helping everyday tasks move faster across locations.

• Support secure access across jurisdictions and user populations: StarGarden supports role-based security, SSO, multiple authentication options for different user populations, and fine-grained access controls to help organizations manage secure access across business structures and geographies.
• Adapt to multi-entity and global operating models: StarGarden supports complex organizational structures, global implementations, multi-vernacular environments, and integration to third-party applications through its API, helping organizations build a more connected cross-border operating model.
• Support connected decision-making across organizations: With Federation Server and workflow capabilities, StarGarden can support more connected authority, approvals, and task visibility across organizations, positions, and people where distributed structures need stronger coordination.
