Managing Remote and On-Site Teams Made Simple with HARP

types.

From full-time PAYE staff to freelance, or agency workers, many businesses now rely on a diverse mix of people to keep operations running smoothly. Some employees even hold dual roles - for instance, a care home manager who also covers duty shifts or bank hours.

Managing that complexity manually can be time-consuming, inconsistent, and prone to error. That’s why organisations across the UK are turning to HARP (HR, Attendance, Recruitment and Payroll) - the all-in-one HR platform built to give HR managers, department leads and business owners clarity, control, and confidence.

Bringing people, processes and data together

HARP centralises everything a HR team needs to manage their workforce - wherever and however people work.

From a single, intuitive dashboard, users can:

• Access detailed Employee Profiles covering contracts, job roles, salary bands, right-to-work documentation and staff types.
• Streamline Absence Tracking, Annual Leave Administration, and Absence Processes for complete visibility and compliance.
• Manage complex rotas and scheduling - ideal for multi-site or shift-based organisations.
• Track hours accurately with Time Logging, Digital Timesheets, and Arrival/Departure Prompts and Questions.
• Maintain oversight with powerful Reporting and Statistics & KPIs that give instant insights into performance and attendance.

Managing multiple roles and contract types

Not every employee fits neatly into one box - and HARP is designed for that reality.

With Dual Role Management, you can easily assign, track and report on individuals who perform different roles within your organisation - with separate pay rates, schedules and responsibilities clearly defined.

The platform supports every staff type and contract structure, including:

• PAYE
• Freelance or self-employed contractors
• Bank, temporary or agency workers

That flexibility ensures accuracy in Payroll Processing, Tax & NI, Loans & Deductions, Benefits & Pensions, and Bonuses & Adjustments - while maintaining fairness and compliance across your entire team.

Empowering people with transparency and autonomy

HARP doesn’t just make life easier for HR teams - it empowers employees, too.

With built-in Employee Requests, Onboarding, and Training Administration, staff can update their own records, request leave, or access training materials directly — giving them autonomy and reducing admin overhead for managers.

Features like Employee Rewards, Appraisals, and Company Absence Schemes help strengthen engagement and communication, even in hybrid or remote settings.

Strategic insights for smarter leadership

By automating everyday tasks such as right to work Checks, unplanned absence contingencies, vacancy management, applicant tracking, leaver processing, and payroll, HARP frees HR professionals and business owners to focus on strategic priorities - from workforce planning to employee wellbeing and retention.

The system’s detailed Reporting, Cost Centre Analysis, and Budgeting Tools provide clear insights to support data-driven decisions, while a clean System Overview and user-friendly Interface ensure managers always have the full picture.

Final thoughts

Managing a diverse, hybrid workforce - with multiple roles, sites and contract types - no longer needs to be a headache.

With HARP, you can bring all aspects of HR, payroll, and workforce management together in one transparent, easy-to-use system.

By giving employees autonomy, providing managers visibility, and freeing leaders to focus on the bigger picture, HARP turns complexity into clarity - and people management into a strategic advantage.
