E&H Hardware Case Study

E&H Hardware Optimizes HR Efficiency with Paycor


“We’ve reduced our turnover from 65% to 50%. This improvement is, in part, due to the recruiting process and being able to stay connected with candidates more effectively.”

Liz Bradham, Director of HR

Challenges

Founded in 1929, E&H Hardware Group, an Ace Hardware co-op, struggled with a cumbersome, complicated HRIS system that wasn’t aligned with their evolving needs. The company was burdened with a laborious, paper-based process that was increasingly inefficient. In the past 3 ½ years, the HR team has grown from only Liz to a team of 5, and the co-op has experienced considerable growth, expanding from 400 to almost 600 employees and 12 new locations.

Payroll Pain Point

  • Inefficient HRIS system
  • Time-consuming, manual processes
  • High employee turnover
  • Suboptimal recruitment strategy

Partnership with Paycor

HR Director, Liz Bradham, previously used Paycor so she was familiar with the robust suite of tools available. E&H implemented nearly every Paycor module to streamline HR, with recruiting being especially impactful. The company transitioned from using costly platforms like Indeed to a more streamlined, less expensive candidate search. E&H has also automated processes from position and pay rate changes to electronic approvals from the leadership team.

Solutions & Key Features

  • Comprehensive HR platform
  • Automated processes
  • Reduced turnover through refined recruitment
  • Streamlined applicant communication

“We’ve really cleaned up our workflow. It has helped us tremendously in keeping track of our processes, and Paycor has been instrumental in supporting us in this journey.”
