Workleap has launched a compensation management solution that consolidates pay reviews, salary benchmarking and analytics into its HR platform. The Montreal-based company made Workleap Compensation available on Oct. 27 after acquiring Barley and integrating the compensation tool into its existing platform.
The solution addresses a common HR challenge, according to the company. Many organizations still manage compensation using spreadsheets and disconnected systems, which can create inconsistencies in pay decisions.
Workleap Compensation connects to existing human resources information systems and provides tools for managing pay bands, analyzing compensation data and running review cycles. The platform supports multiple currencies and locations.
Core features
The solution includes several components for HR and finance teams. Pay bands can be customized across roles, levels and locations, with support for both salary and hourly pay structures. The system visualizes where employees fall within their designated pay ranges.
Compensation analytics allow teams to track pay distribution, identify gaps in pay equity and spot issues such as pay compression. The platform can analyze pay equity by gender, department or location.
The review function handles salary review cycles with merit guidelines and budget controls. According to the company, this can reduce compensation cycle times by two to four weeks.
A total rewards portal gives employees visibility into their salary, equity and benefits packages. The benchmarking component provides access to salary data from Mercer’s SMB dataset in the U.S. and Canada, as well as Comptryx’s global tech dataset.
Integration approach
“Compensation is an organization’s largest operating expense, yet too often it’s managed using disconnected tools that add complexity and risk,” said Guillaume Roy, co-founder and chief product officer of Workleap. “By fully incorporating Barley into Workleap, we’re giving organizations a smarter, streamlined way to manage pay — no more juggling spreadsheets or siloed systems.”
The platform syncs with existing HRIS systems and includes access controls. Workleap plans to integrate the compensation solution more deeply with its AI tools and other HR products in future updates.
