Melita Group Launches Suite of Turnkey HR, Benefits, and Payroll

Melita Group, a leading Benefits and HR Services company, announced today the expansion of its services portfolio with three new turnkey service packages BenefitsComplete™, HRComplete™ and HRStrategy™. The new suite of products will help small and mid-sized businesses manage their critically important, but labor intensive HR, Benefits and Payroll functions while enabling Human Resources to become a strategic force driving their business growth.

Taking a modern approach, Melita provides the market with a compelling combination of technology and personalized expert services, the optimal balance of the key components necessary to manage the new complex world of HR, Benefits & Payroll. In this newly announced services portfolio, Melita’s team of HR and employee benefit experts act as the customer’s HR and/or Benefits departments, taking over time-consuming tasks and building a foundation for growth and results.

“Today’s CEOs and business leaders understand the impact of investing in their people and that starts with building a scalable infrastructure. There is a void in the small and mid-market for a comprehensive, flexible, affordable, high quality solution for outsourcing HR, Benefits and Payroll,” said Paul Mifsud, President & CEO of Melita Group. “We are excited to bring our unique solutions to the market to address this void and help our clients grow and prosper.”

Similar to PEOs, Melita’s services are complete and turnkey. But unlike PEOs, Melita’s packages are not one-size-fits-all in that the services are tailored to the specific needs of the client. As the client’s business grows, the package is adaptable to allow for a smooth transition when the client hires their own HR team. Melita’s team includes highly accomplished HR executives who work directly with CEOs to help chart a strategic HR road map for growth that aligns with the company’s goals. This approach allows Melita to provide Fortune 500-like resources and expertise to the small and mid-sized market at an affordable cost.

Need for Technology Enabled Personalized Services in HR Industry

“Self-serve secure access to critical information from any place, using any device at any time is a requirement for today’s tech-savvy businesses,” said Sathyan Iyengar, CTO of Melita Group. “User experience is paramount for Melita and using the latest cloud-based SaaS technologies, Melita’s new suite of services provides both employees and employers with instant access to the latest Benefits and HR information with easy-to-use dashboards, alerts and reports through a convenient web portal.”

The newly announced Melita suite of services BenefitsComplete™, HRComplete™ and HRStrategy™ is available starting today. All of these services share a common principle: to help Melita’s clients succeed by innovating, serving, and supporting their Human Resources and Employee Benefits needs.

  • BenefitsComplete™ is an all-in-one benefits solution, combining the perfect blend of expert advice, robust technology, and hands-on support to elevate the customer’s benefits program to the next level, all without an increase to the budget.
  • HRComplete™ is a fully outsourced HR, Benefits and Payroll solution designed to fit the client’s unique needs. Melita’s management of the key administrative functions contributes to the customer’s ability to compete for top talent, protect the business from risk, and better serve employees.
  • HRStrategy™ builds on the solid foundation of HRComplete with the addition of an executive-level HR/Business Advisor to work with the C-Suite to develop a comprehensive HR strategy to set the Client’s business on a path for enduring success.

When HR becomes a strategic force driving the business, there’s no limit to what companies can achieve. With the help of Melita’s team of experts, customers can attract top talent, build an environment in which employees can thrive and focus on what matters most.

Greenhouse Software Moves Up The 2023 Fosway 9-Grid™ For Talent Acquisition

PRnewswire | May 22, 2023

Greenhouse, the hiring operating system for people-first companies, today announced it has moved up within the Core Leader zone in the 2023 Fosway 9-Grid™ for Talent Acquisition. For the third consecutive year, Greenhouse has been recognized as a talent acquisition industry leader for its continued growth in EMEA, investment in enterprise, product advancements and proven ability to deliver value to customers as they work to improve their hiring processes and build stronger businesses. The skills crisis remains a big challenge for the largest of European economies and according to Fosway, "Employers are still desperate to hire key skills despite a mixed economic outlook." Companies paying close attention would do well to focus on key areas of strategic ability including candidate experience which includes structured interviewing, onboarding and adding the right integrations to their personalized hiring tech stack. Additionally, amidst an uncertain economic outlook, Fosway reports, "Corporates in EMEA are looking to both increase diversity and reduce bias," which places more emphasis on talent acquisition teams to further prioritize bias mitigation in the hiring process for fairer decision-making. "The Talent Acquisition market is evolving at pace, despite the challenging economic climate," said David Wilson, CEO, Fosway Group. "Greenhouse has shown significant growth over the past year, and also continues to innovate, accelerating its potential value to customers and its wider partner ecosystem." According to Fosway, "For corporates, a recession can mean two things: either hiring stops or it continues but selectively. For TA teams, this can create the opportunity to redesign or improve existing recruiting experiences, as well as to innovate and look at new solutions or evolve their TA ecosystem." There are numerous ways Greenhouse believes organizations can continue to create value, and this report underlines the need for a long-term, sustainable hiring process. "European companies face a challenging moment of economic uncertainty, and this latest Fosway report highlights that another Great Resignation is on the horizon. Talent acquisition teams need to prepare to hire for what's next, now, and there's an acute need to focus on process improvements around candidate experience, onboarding in a virtual world and building a strong foundation of structured hiring to win top talent," said Colm O'Cuinneain, General Manager of EMEA, Greenhouse. Key trends from the report that companies should consider: Structured interviewing holds the key to a stronger candidate experience: The report recommends that talent acquisition technology buyers should embrace every improvement in the "interview revolution" to create better experiences for candidates. "Suite vendors are continually investing in their products, and each update provides more benefits to clients." Greenhouse recently launched Pay Transparency features within its hiring software suite. A spotlight is given to onboarding workflows which are vital in hybrid work: Fosway says, "Onboarding transcends journeys and starts to create truly memorable experiences," emphasizing the importance of setting up new hires for success after the financial and time investment or hiring top talent. This report cites, "With close to 60% of organisations changing their approach to flexible working in 2023, more corporates will continue to feel the pains of virtual onboarding." Greenhouse Onboarding now includes new features like Greenhouse Goals for New Hires, to allow new hires to become productive, engaged and active members of the company faster. DE&I and AI are having a reckoning in hiring: With new products touting AI and automation at scale, Fosway cautions that companies do their due diligence, comply with state and national legal compliance and continue to address and mitigate unconscious bias in hiring. "Reducing bias in hiring decisions is a shared accountability – corporates must work harder on their own controls as well." As the average number of integrations per customer continues to grow, a seamless, customizable and wide-ranging integration ecosystem will support a personalized tech stack: Greenhouse has cultivated the largest partner ecosystem that includes over 450 unique partners. Greenhouse customers are offered free and open APIs that allow them to think – and solve for – every step and dimension of their hiring process. In 2022, Greenhouse added over 60 new integrations including Microsoft Dynamics, Oyster, Paylocity and Sapia. The Fosway 9-Grid™ is EMEA's premier five-dimensional model that compares organizations based on their Performance, Potential, Market Presence, Total Cost of Ownership and Future Trajectories across the market. Unlike other analyst models, Fosway 9-Grid™ research is primarily focused on talent acquisition solutions which are relevant to international enterprise-scale customers whose primary engagement with provider is throughout European headquarters. About Greenhouse Greenhouse is the hiring operating system for people-first companies. Our industry-leading software brings a structured hiring approach to any company's process, helping to promote more fair and equitable hiring practices and more data-driven decisions so companies can continuously get better at hiring.

Nava Launches the Modern Benefits Experience for Employees and their Families

PRnewswire | April 17, 2023

Nava Benefits, an outcome-driven benefits brokerage that makes great benefits easier for growing companies, today announced the launch of its Member Experience offering. Anchored by the Nava Benefits App, this comprehensive solution simplifies key aspects of the employee benefits journey, from open enrollment to member support and benefits communication. Today, HR leaders at companies of all sizes face the same three issues when it comes to supporting their employees: helping them understand what their benefits are, educating them on how to use those benefits, and supporting them when they need help. With 80% of employees confused by their plans and 50% unaware of their coverage details, the complexity of managing employee benefits programs has become a burden for HR leaders. Nava's Member Experience offering reduces this workload by providing employees with a centralized portal and in-app support that drives their benefits adoption and utilization. "Nava's mission is to provide high-quality, affordable healthcare to all Americans," said Brandon Weber, CEO and co-founder of Nava. "For employees, their benefits are the onramp to their healthcare journey. The launch of Nava's Member Experience offering is a key step in making it easier for employees to actually use the benefits they already have." Built on insights from Nava's clients, HR community, and Benefits Advisory Board, the Nava Benefits App serves as an interactive benefits wallet and the front door to a member's benefits usage. With carrier and plan information preloaded into the app, members can access their digital ID cards, links to carrier and provider portals, and coverage details in one place. Most importantly, the Nava Benefits App provides in-app support to the company's dedicated team of Benefits Advocates. Instead of contacting HR with sensitive and urgent questions pertaining to carrier enrollment issues, plan summary explanation, provider search support, medical bill clarification, and claims guidance, they'll now be able to get direct support from some of the industry's most experienced benefits experts. The Nava Benefits App is available for free for all Nava clients on both Android and iOS, and will begin rolling out to existing customers in Q2. The launch of Nava's modern approach to member experience is another significant milestone for the company, and follows the rollout of the Nava Benefits Search Engine, where employers can discover and learn about 700 providers across 28 benefits categories, backed by reviews from fellow HR professionals. With a 3x growth in members year-over-year, Nava is trusted by hundreds of growing employers to build solutions that make great benefits easy, allowing HR teams to focus on what they love to do.
