Core HR for Structured Organizations 

Core HR software helps organizations manage foundational employee and workforce information in one place. That includes areas like employee records, positions, organizational structure, compensation, benefits, balances and accruals, and related HR processes. In StarGarden, Core HR is part of an integrated HRMS designed to work alongside payroll, time and attendance, reporting, and other workforce functions.

StarGarden Core HR supports core workforce administration through modules such as Organization Management, Employee Demographics, Balances and Accruals, Benefits Management, and Compensation Management. The broader platform also includes integrated capabilities for payroll, time and attendance, reporting and analytics, self-service, scheduling, recruiting, training, employee relations, health and safety, and employment equity.
