Understanding your retail workforce
We understand that retail is one of the main industries that needs to tackle challenges for a varied workforce in both customer facing and non-customer facing roles.
Our handy retail guide explains more about how we can support you to boost employee engagement, enhance your workforce and keep you compliant.

You choose the HR solutions you need
Only paying for what will add value. Our HR and payroll platform, iTrent, features employee self-service and chatbots, allowing your people to update their records, access payslips, request holidays or even clock-in when they’re spread out across multiple sites.
Avoid spending hours on time-consuming admin and find cost efficiencies so you can focus on your customers.

Improve compliance and data security
Our cloud-hosted HR and payroll system enables you to store all your employee records and documents in one central and secure location.
Our solutions are backed up by state-of-the-art data centres with prevention technologies and disaster recovery so you can have total confidence in how your employee data is stored.

Smarter finance solutions
Retail businesses can be incredibly volatile. You don’t have a lot of control over inflation, raw costs, energy costs or wage increases. That makes financial planning and forecasting incredibly challenging.
Finance from MHR empowers your finance team with extra agility, and vastly improved forecasting tools.
