The UltiPro Human Resource and Payroll System have been instrumental in allowing the City to systematically manage and control human resource functions, time keeping and payroll. Integration of the financial data allows for monthly reporting and workflow routing for approvals.
Using the Time and Attendance module, City personnel can enter their current hours worked, submit requests for personal time off and view current and historic paychecks. Using the web-based Human Resource module employees can now elect their benefits and develop their objectives, while managers can perform reviews, manage employee development and recruit new employees.
The Ultimate Software Group Inc. received Human Rights and Living Wage compliance approval on 07/02/2010 and funding for the maintenance agreement and subscription fees for the UltiPro Human Resource and Payroll System is budgeted for and available in the FY2011 Information Technology Services Unit Fund.
