using the\u00a0<strong>Hectre Orchard Management<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>App<\/strong>\u00a0since 2016. Hectre captures all of the hours worked by our employees, so we\u2019ve already got the\u00a0<strong>recording<\/strong>\u00a0side of things sorted.\u00a0<\/em><em><strong>The app automatically calculates whether minimum wage requirements have been met<\/strong>. If an employee hasn\u2019t met minimum wage, Hectre will use algorithms to\u00a0<strong>automatically calculate the top up amount required<\/strong>\u00a0for that employee. This will be highlighted in the payroll reports. So if we ever had someone not meeting minimum wage through their performance, we would be able to identify this easily and address it.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-f9d3833 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"f9d3833\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_ob_glider_is_slider&quot;:&quot;no&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-9d5c52f\" data-id=\"9d5c52f\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_ob_column_has_pseudo&quot;:&quot;no&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-442f824 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"442f824\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_ob_widget_stalker_use&quot;:&quot;no&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Avoid Grey Hairs And Reduce Your Admin Burden<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-10ac009 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"10ac009\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_ob_use_container_extras&quot;:&quot;no&quot;,&quot;_ob_glider_is_slider&quot;:&quot;no&quot;,&quot;_ob_column_has_pseudo&quot;:&quot;no&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e6141ed e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"e6141ed\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_ob_use_container_extras&quot;:&quot;no&quot;,&quot;_ob_glider_is_slider&quot;:&quot;no&quot;,&quot;_ob_column_has_pseudo&quot;:&quot;no&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6c87573 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6c87573\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_ob_postman_use&quot;:&quot;no&quot;,&quot;_ob_widget_stalker_use&quot;:&quot;no&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>If you\u2019re needing to deal with minimum wage regulations, and would like to learn more about how Hectre\u2019s award winning, simple to use orchard management app, can help\u00a0<strong>save you from admin nightmares<\/strong>, <a href=\"https:\/\/staging.hectre.com\/company\/contact\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">contact our friendly team<\/a> for a free, no obligation, 45 minute zoom consultation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"featured_media":21205,"template":"","category_blog":[32],"class_list":["post-21203","blog","type-blog","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category_blog-hectre-knowledge-share"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.hectre.com\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/blog\/21203"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.hectre.com\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/blog"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.hectre.com\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/blog"}],"version-history":[{"count":34,"href":"https:\/\/staging.hectre.com\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/blog\/21203\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":35810,"href":"https:\/\/staging.hectre.com\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/blog\/21203\/revisions\/35810"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.hectre.com\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/21205"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.hectre.com\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21203"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category_blog","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.hectre.com\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/category_blog?post=21203"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
