Eira Hammond comments: “At Hi we’re about to turn everything we have come to know and expect from payroll on its head. Workers have come to expect instant access to just about everything using mobile technology, including their bank, shopping, entertainment and social media, so why not instant access to their pay? Employers will have the ability to offer a completely new employee benefit, enabling them to attract and retain the best talent. “It’s an exciting time to be joining Hi and I’m thrilled to be delivering real-time pay to employees as they earn, rather than them having to wait until pay day.”
