Labour is one of the largest costs within any retail business, yet many organisations still rely on disconnected HR software, spreadsheets and manual processes.
Small inefficiencies - whether that's managers spending hours on administration, high employee turnover or duplicated payroll work -quickly become hundreds of thousands of pounds across a workforce of 1,000 employees.
Access PeopleXD Evo helps retailers reduce these costs whilst improving the employee experience.
Retail experiences some of the highest employee turnover levels in the UK workforce, making accurate HR records and seamless data management business-critical. A single source of truth across every system, from the shop floor to head office, keeps employee data consistent, reduces administration and helps your teams move faster.
Retail payroll is rarely straightforward. Variable pay, overtime, bank holidays and commission all add complexity and increase the risk of manual errors. Automating payroll calculations and integrating HR with payroll improves accuracy, reduces reconciliation and ensures every employee is paid correctly, every time, across every location.
Intelligent rota planning, demand-led scheduling and real-time shift swapping give store managers the tools to deploy labour where it is needed most. By automating complex shift patterns in a system that's simple to use, retailers can reduce administrative effort, respond faster to changing demand and run more efficient operations across every site.
UK retail employment has fallen to its lowest level on record, with ONS figures showing just 2.76 million jobs as of March 2026. With entry-level and flexible roles shrinking, attracting and keeping the right people requires a modern employee experience, with mobile-accessible benefits, recognition and on-demand pay, that reflects your brand and rewards loyalty.
