Deputy
Website: www.deputy.com
Deputy is a workforce management platform for employee scheduling, time tracking, and task management. It supports shift scheduling, timesheet approvals, break compliance tracking, and labour cost forecasting.
Accounting firms encounter Deputy at client businesses with shift-based workforces — retail, hospitality, healthcare, and services. The platform integrates with payroll and accounting systems, flowing approved timesheets directly into payroll processing. Firms advising these clients can use Deputy’s labour cost data for financial analysis and budgeting.
Some accounting firms also use Deputy internally to manage staff schedules, particularly those with multiple offices or seasonal staffing needs. The platform is best suited for businesses with hourly or shift-based workers rather than salaried professional teams. Firms needing time tracking for billable client work typically use a different tool designed for professional services.
