Staffing Software and Tax Companies Partner

eEmpACT Software, a staffing software company, has teamed up with The Tax Credit Processing Center, LLC.

The strategic alliance will provide joint customers of eEmpACT and TaxBreak with the ability to identify potential tax credits for job placements. The companies state it's crucial that eEmpACT clients in the staffing services arena be aware of tax credits as they relate to individuals prior to filling job orders.

"In working with TaxBreak, we have finalized a complete integration to make the processing of tax credits as paperless and seamless for staffing firms as possible," Claudette Jaswa, vice president of sales and marketing at eEmpACT, said. "Our new partnership will provide our joint clients a great deal more in terms of usability."

Typically, identifying individual worker tax credits has involved an arduous, paper-filled process, but identifying such tax credits is vital to ensure staffing companies do not spend more tax dollars than necessary.

"We are convinced that this relationship will help both clients of TaxBreak and industry leading staffing software provider eEmpACT, become more effective," TaxBreak Presidnet Shannon Scott said. "We have always set out to improve efficiencies for our clients by aligning with industry leaders and have certainly accomplished that with this strategic alliance."

"TaxBreak is very responsive and they are interested in you as a company," Wayne Williamson, owner of Willstaff Worldwide, client of both TaxBreak and eEmpACT, said. "They are efficient and good at what they do. They went back and found $8 million worth of past tax breaks for which we were eligible and did not know about. The key is they take care of you as a customer."

"When we went with TaxBreak, they did an audit and found an additional $127,000 that another company didn’t," Brad Hughes, president of The Hughes Agency, and a client of both companies, said.. "The integration between TaxBreak and eEmpACT will make the process virtually painless."

Staffing Software Company Helps Client Save Money

One staffing software company is helping its clients save money.

TempWorks Software, Inc. recently announced that one of its clients, Penmac Personnel Services, expects to increase its bottom line by about $15,000 per year by using the TempWorks Time Clock solution.

During the last nine months, Penmac Personnel has installed more than 12 TempWorks Time Clocks. The product allows staffing companies to decide how employees should punch-in and punch-out using the clocks. Security authorization can be accomplished by number of different methods, including: keyed pin codes, magnetic swipe cards, or biometrically.

The software also allows line-workers and managers to have access to real-time information so they can see who is on-site and who is absent, as well as up-to-the-minute information on when employees enter and exit a worksite.

"The TempWorks Time Clock is a big step forward in the weakest area of staffing; getting accurate data into the system for payroll processing," Mark Gullet, application systems analyst for Penmac Personnel Services, said in a press release. "Fewer staff members are needed to verify the Time Clock 'punches' and submit the data directly into our payroll system."

"TempWorks Time Clocks are yet another way Penmac is able to differentiate themselves from their competition, while saving money at the same time," TempWorks Vice President Cory Hintz added.

TempWorks Software is designed to automate and streamline all facets of a staffing firm's daily operation. The company, which was founded in 1994, offers fully-integrated front and back-office staffing software and Web portals for customers, employees, applicants and vendor management, as well as other additional modules.

Penmac Personnel Services offers staffing services for light industrial placement and the clerical and transportation industries. The company operates 35 offices in five states and was named one of the Top 50 Organizations for Diversity by DiversityBusiness.com.
