The Challenge of Retail Leave Management
Retail workers face a number of on-the-job risks, like strains, sprains, and repetitive stress injuries, which means your HR team may spend excessive time managing leave requests and workers’ comp claims. Manual paperwork and LOA documentation is inefficient, not to mention unenjoyable. Pulpstream helps you get back to doing people-focused HR work.
Pulpstream’s rule-based automation adapts to your processes and workflows, managing all documentation, tracking deadlines, and streamlining communication for all levels of management.
All-in-One Absence Management for Retail
Automated Actions and Alerts
Pulpstream notifies you the moment an employee submits a leave request in the self-service portal. If their documentation is complete, Pulpstream can auto-approve the request and notify the employee. If more documentation is required, Pulpstream can notify the employee of conditional approval, with instructions for providing the additional documents. No lengthy back-and-forth emails required.
Workers’ Comp and FMLA Coordination
Pulpstream tracks cases that trigger eligibility for both FMLA and workers’ comp, monitoring case status and managing documentation. You can choose what types of case alerts you want to receive and who should receive them, so managers and HR teams stay informed without getting irrelevant pings.
ADA Accommodation Management
Pulpstream uses continuous machine learning to understand the scope of ADA accommodations in every state and provides evidence-based, fully compliant accommodation recommendations based on that knowledge.
Company Policy Compliance
With Pulpstream, you can set up your own leave policies to run concurrently or independently of FMLA or state laws. Pulpstream’s compliance engine ensures paid family leave, earned sick leave, and sabbatical leave are compliant with jurisdictional and federal rules.
Return-to-Work Coordination
Pulpstream manages the full return-to-work process and can recommend modified duty assignments for retail employees. Every step is documented within Pulpstream for easy reference anytime.
