Our March release introduces two major new modules for contractors and union shops, plus Plaid bank verification, Spanish onboarding, and 30+ reports now available at the client level.
Certified Projects: Prevailing Wage Built Into Payroll
Contractors on government-funded or Davis-Bacon projects no longer need separate spreadsheets or third-party tools to track prevailing wage obligations. Worklio now handles it inside the payroll run.
Projects with certified class codes and rate tables (base + fringe)
Prevailing wage and fringe calculations applied automatically at payroll time
WH-347 certified payroll reports generated directly from Worklio
LCP Tracker export for public-project reporting
Apprenticeship programs and cash fringe allocation
Prevailing wage compliance moves from a side process into the payroll engine itself.

Union Payroll: Rates, Dues, and Benefits in One Place
The new Unions module gives payroll teams a single source of truth for union locals, rate tables, dues, and benefit packages. During payroll, Worklio reads the employee's assigned union and class, then applies the correct rates automatically.
Union locals with effective-dated rate tables and packages
Employee assignment: default union local and class on the employment record
Time import by union local and class; rates and deductions apply on the fly
Jobs auto-determine work location, certified project, and workers comp class
No more manual rate lookups. Union payroll runs like any other payroll.

Plaid Bank Verification
Employees verify their bank accounts through Plaid during direct deposit setup. Verified accounts display a confirmation badge. Once enabled, it applies globally across all clients.
Spanish Onboarding
Admins set the onboarding language per template. New hires then complete every step in Spanish, including invitation emails, welcome emails, and landing pages. Legal forms (I-9, W-4, 8850) remain in English as required.
New Employee Experience Portal
Now the default for all users. The legacy portal and mobile app will be retired in April. The new portal is faster, mobile-optimized, and supports Plaid verification and Spanish onboarding out of the box.
30+ New Client-Level Reports
Reports previously available only to service bureaus are now accessible to client admins, covering payroll, benefits, HR, direct deposit, GL, and compliance (EEO-1, Affirmative Action, CA Pay Data).
