Partnership pairs WorkEasy's verified time and attendance with Folks' Canadian-built HR, recruitment, and payroll platform
Pembroke Pines, FL, September 1st, 2026
WorkEasy Software, the workforce management platform powering more than 10,000 teams, today announced a partnership with Folks HR, the all-in-one HR, recruitment, and payroll platform built for Canadian small and medium-sized businesses. The partnership gives companies across Canada a complete path from the time clock to the pay stub: rugged time and attendance from WorkEasy, paired with core HR, applicant tracking, and payroll purpose-built for Canadian regulations from Folks.
The two companies serve the same kinds of businesses: manufacturers running multiple shifts across the plant floor, construction companies tracking crews across job sites, and professional services firms billing hours by project. Folks has built for those operational realities for years, with platform capabilities including accident management, certification renewal reminders, and project timesheets. WorkEasy has spent its history perfecting verified, real-time time tracking in demanding environments.
"Our customers in manufacturing and construction have been asking us for a trusted HR and payroll answer in Canada, and Folks is exactly that," said Sino Jos, Co-founder and CEO of WorkEasy Software. "They serve the same industries we do, they've built for Canadian compliance from day one, and they care about their customers the way we care about ours. This partnership means our Canadian clients get a complete solution without compromising on either side."
What Folks brings to WorkEasy customers in Canada
Canadian WorkEasy clients evaluating the rest of their HR stack now have a recommended answer. Folks offers:
- Core HR that centralizes employee data, onboarding, absence management, performance reviews, training and certification tracking, and HR reporting in one place
- An applicant tracking system (ATS) with automated job postings, resume parsing, AI-powered candidate matchmaking, and customizable career pages, built for SMB recruiting teams
- Canadian payroll that automates payroll runs in compliance with federal and provincial regulations, from Ontario to Quebec, with direct deposit and automatic pay stub delivery
Just as important is how Folks is built. The platform is designed around Canadian labour law, employee data stays on Canadian servers, and support is fully bilingual in English and French. More than 1,200 Canadian organizations already trust Folks with their HR.
What WorkEasy brings to Folks customers
Folks customers gain access to accurate, verified time and attendance that holds up in demanding environments. WorkEasy delivers biometric time clocks built for industrial settings, plus mobile, kiosk, and web clocking for distributed teams. Every punch is verified in real time, which means the hours flowing into payroll are hours employers can trust. Combined with advanced scheduling, overtime controls, job costing, and time-off automation, Folks customers get workforce data that is accurate at the source.
Better together
The partnership delivers three practical benefits:
- A connected experience. Employee data stays in sync between the two platforms, so teams spend less time on duplicate entry and more time on the work that matters. Both teams are actively working to deepen how the platforms work together.
- Coverage for the full employee lifecycle. Recruit and hire with Folks ATS, onboard and manage with Folks HR, track time and control labor costs with WorkEasy, and pay accurately with Folks Payroll.
- Two teams that speak your language. Whether a company runs a plant in Mississauga, job sites in Alberta, or a bilingual services firm in Quebec, both companies have built for that industry and that regulatory environment.
"WorkEasy has spent years perfecting verified time and attendance for the exact industries we serve," said Jimmy Plante, CEO of Folks. "Pairing their accurate, real-time workforce data with our HR, recruitment, and payroll platform gives Canadian SMBs something rare: a connected experience built by two teams that truly understand their reality."
Availability
The partnership is available to customers of both platforms today. WorkEasy customers in Canada evaluating core HR, applicant tracking, or payroll can request an introduction to the Folks team, and Folks customers looking to tighten up time and attendance can book a WorkEasy demo. Existing customers should contact their account manager to learn more.
