EmphasisHR is an independent, third-party Paylocity managed services partner. We operate exclusively on the Paylocity platform as your outsourced HR, payroll, and benefits department — a strategic partner working solely on your behalf.
We’re not a software vendor and not a Professional Employer Organization (PEO). Your company remains the sole employer of record and keeps full ownership and control of your data and HR decisions.
For over 15 years, EmphasisHR has provided managed Paylocity platform services to hundreds of growth companies throughout the US.
Your business is growing, and you’ve made the right choice in deciding to scale with Paylocity. EmphasisHR bridges the gap between your Paylocity platform and your daily human resources operations. After implementing and supporting hundreds of Paylocity clients, the EmphasisHR team absorbs the administrative burden, saving our clients an average of 15 hours per week.
“I think it’s a natural fit having the implementation lead into managed services. The people who are the closest to your data, closest to the implementation easily transition into supporting you from Day 1. There’s no loss in expertise or knowledge, it’s a natural fit.”
Paylocity is built to evolve with your organization, not run on autopilot. At EmphasisHR, we know the biggest barriers aren’t technical, they’re operational. Most small and mid-sized organizations’ business owners and HR teams are missing out on 40–50% of their HCM’s potential. It’s not about motivation, it’s about time, knowledge, and competing day-to-day priorities. When you find yourself managing everything from new hire onboarding to payroll processing to expense management to benefits administration, it’s time to look for Paylocity Managed Services.
You need an expert who bridges your operational gaps and helps you operate seamlessly across not just one Paylocity module, but all Paylocity modules.
It’s time to hang up the multiple hats you’ve been wearing. EmphasisHR provides dedicated, specialized Paylocity support that becomes fully assimilated into your business operations.
