About the Business
Cathay Investments Ltd. is a diverse group of companies operating across multiple industries
and locations. The organisation consists of a head office, a large temp agency (3PL Resources),
and several sister companies including AGF, ESP, Perkins, Mercian, and AG. In total, the group
employs nearly 300 people across various departments and sites.
Challenges with Time & Attendance
Cathay Investments faced ongoing challenges in maintaining accurate time and attendance
records. Staff occasionally missed clocking in, and miscommunications between employees
and managers often led to delays or errors in updating attendance data.
Their previous system was outdated, lacked adequate support, and made it difficult to monitor
workforce activity across the business. As a result, the team struggled with inefficiencies in
payroll processing and overall workforce management.
Why They Chose RotaOne
Cathay Investments was looking for a modern, reliable solution that could centralise time and
attendance across all of their companies. RotaOne was selected for its functionality, ease of
use, and ability to provide the visibility they needed across multiple sites.
What Changed After Implementation
After implementing RotaOne, Cathay Investments experienced immediate improvements in
how they tracked attendance and processed payroll data.
“We now have the visibility that we require and use RotaOne as a tool to get the correct
information we need for payroll.”
Managers gained access to real-time data across all locations, allowing for better oversight and
more informed decision-making.
Seamless Payroll Integration
One of the standout benefits was RotaOne’s integration with Sage Payroll. This eliminated the
need for manual data entry, improved accuracy, and saved time.
