Multiple universities across Australia relied on manual and vendor-driven processes for TFN (Tax File Number) collection and superannuation fund nomination, leading to inefficiencies, errors, higher costs, and compliance challenges. E1 partnered with these universities and supported the transition from traditional onboarding process to a Workday-based solution (OzOnboard) to simplify onboarding and improve accuracy and control.
Our clients include a group of leading universities across Australia managing large and diverse workforces. They required a reliable and compliant approach to support high-volume onboarding across academic and administrative teams.
Universities faced several challenges in managing onboarding and payroll-related processes, including:
The primary objective was to modernize onboarding by introducing a secure, Workday-native solution for collecting and validating employee tax and superannuation data. The clients aimed to reduce manual effort, ensure compliance with Australian Taxation Office (ATO) requirements, and streamline integration with external payroll and superannuation systems.
E1 Consulting was chosen for its deep Workday expertise and flexible support model, providing direct access to certified Workday professionals with real hands-on experience. E1 delivered OZOnboard, a
