Customer Story

The YMCA of Greater Boston gains improved efficiency, accuracy, and compliance using UKG Ready

  • Streamline time tracking with automated collection of time and attendance information

  • Simplify your entire payroll process while ensuring accuracy and providing in-depth reporting

YMCA

Part of the oldest and largest youth organisation in the world, YMCA is a nonprofit passionate about nurturing potential and providing safe spaces where young people can grow, learn, move and thrive. YMCA of Greater Boston has more than 2,000 employees across 70 locations.

Challenges

Managers at YMCA of Greater Boston’s 70 locations spent significant time gathering and faxing employees’ timesheet information to the payroll department. The process not only required issuing numerous corrected manual paycheques each pay period, but also required tedious scanning, faxing, and emailing of paper forms whenever an employee address had changed.

What the YMCA of Greater Boston needed was a solution that could:

  • Automate time and attendance to let managers focus supporting the Y’s mission
  • Save time and ensure accurate data through the use of employee self-service tools
  • Maintain compliance with complex requirements and IRS reporting of the Affordable Care Act
  • Enable managers to analyse workforce data by branch and department through detailed and configurable reporting
