The platform

Enrollment, life events, and everything after

  • employee-access-pto-and-benefits-in-one-portal-58c4eff6

    Enrollment

    Make enrollment payroll-ready

    Give employees a self-service enrollment experience with side-by-side plan comparisons and benefit information to help them make their selections. Administrators can track progress in real time.

  • selections-connected-to-pay-c7d66b04

    Payroll deductions

    Push elections to payroll

    Because benefits and payroll are part of the same platform, your team can move benefit elections into payroll deductions without a spreadsheet handoff or setting up deductions employee by employee.

  • employee-change-with-documents-cd502b8e

    Life events

    Handle changes promptly

    Employees can claim a qualifying life event from self-service at any time, and administrators review and approve the resulting changes. Supporting documentation is uploaded and tracked within the same process, so nothing gets lost along the way.

  • simple-tax-deadline-tracking-b480de18

    ACA compliance

    Track eligibility year-round

    Calculate ACA eligibility continuously using actual payroll and hours data. Instead of reconstructing employee eligibility at year-end, your team has the data ready when it's time to generate 1095-Cs.

  • role-based-access-controls-6ca690e1

    Benefit packages

    Group offerings by type

    Set eligibility rules, contribution structures, and plan availability based on the employees you're managing. Support different benefit tiers, locations, classifications, and employee groups within the same benefits process.

  • simple-tax-compliance-visibility-58bce3ea

    Tracking progress

    Keep enrollment moving

    See enrollment progress in real time and identify employees who still need to take action before the window closes. Passive enrollment can automatically carry forward coverage for existing benefit holders who don't make new selections.

    EDI files

    Keep carrier data moving

    Use EDI connections to send benefits enrollment information to carriers and keep benefit data moving between Greenshades and your providers.

Built to fit in

Workforce management that fits your stack

Our integrations cover the major ERPs, ATS, time & attendance tools, and more. If your setup is more particular, our open API lets your team connect anything else. Adding Greenshades never means replacing the systems you depend on.

Beyond enrollment season

Open enrollment is just the beginning

New hires, terminations, and life events change coverage all year. When benefits and payroll don't share a record, those changes get caught in a reconciliation, a catch-up deduction, or a premium you paid for someone who already left.

Payroll

Run complex, multi-state payroll in-house, with hours, deductions, and new-hire details already in the run so every check is right the first time.

  • Direct deposit and printed checks
  • Blended overtime and shift differentials
  • Garnishments managed right in the pay run
