Workzoom Pricing Summary

Workzoom is an all-in-one HR, payroll, workforce management, and talent management platform built for organizations with 50 to 5,000 employees. It is priced at $4 per suite per employee per month (CAD in Canada, USD elsewhere). The complete platform with all four suites costs $16 per employee per month in your billing currency. A 200-employee organization using all four suites pays $3,200 per month with no setup fees and no contracts.

Core Suite (required, $4 per employee per month)

The Core suite is the Workzoom platform itself. Every subscription starts here. It includes three portals: an admin portal for HR teams, a manager portal for supervisors, and an employee self-service portal for staff. Core includes recruiting, onboarding, personnel records, organizational charts and position management, compensation management, employee engagement surveys, document storage with e-signatures, and reporting and analytics. All other suites build on top of Core.

Talent Suite (optional, +$4 per employee per month)

Performance management with 360-degree reviews and 9-box talent grids, a learning management system with course tracking and certifications, career planning with development paths, and succession planning with readiness assessments.

Workforce Suite (optional, +$4 per employee per month)

Drag-and-drop employee scheduling with shift templates, timekeeping with web, mobile, kiosk, biometric, and facial recognition clocking, and time off management with balance tracking, approval workflows, and team calendar views.

Payroll Suite (optional, +$4 per employee per month)

Payroll processing with built-in statutory compliance for multiple countries. Canada: CPP, EI, federal and provincial income tax, T4, ROE. United States: federal and state taxes, W-2. Bahamas: NIB contributions. Jamaica: PAYE, NIS, NHT, Education Tax, HEART/NSTA. Trinidad and Tobago: NIS, Health Surcharge, PAYE. Also includes benefits administration and expense management with receipt capture.

Complete Platform ($16 per employee per month)

All four suites combined. For a 200-employee company, the complete platform costs $3,200 per month. For a 500-employee company, it costs $8,000 per month. Annual prepayment saves 5%, and non-profit organizations receive an additional 5% discount.

Discounts available

Annual prepay discount: 5% off when billed annually instead of monthly. Non-profit discount: 5% off for registered non-profit organizations. These discounts stack for a combined savings of approximately 9.75%. Example: a 200-employee non-profit on annual billing pays approximately $34,668 per year instead of $38,400, saving $3,732 annually.

What is included at no extra cost

Implementation and setup, data migration from existing systems (spreadsheets, other HRIS, payroll providers), training for administrators and end users, ongoing customer support, and all future software updates and new features. There are no per-payroll-run fees, no per-report fees, and no per-user license fees beyond the per-employee pricing.

Minimum monthly fees

For very small organizations, minimum monthly fees apply: $400 per month for 1 suite, $500 for 2 suites, $600 for 3 suites, $700 for all 4 suites. These minimums only affect organizations with fewer than 100 employees.

06How it works

What running payroll in Antigua and Barbuda actually requires

ABSSB contribution schedules, IRD reporting, and tourism-sector workforce management all make specific demands of the system behind the payroll run. Here is what Workzoom's architecture handles so your team does not have to.

Single database. No sync required.

HR, Workforce, Payroll, and Talent share one employee record. When a rate changes in HR, payroll reads it immediately. No sync job between modules, no export to a separate payroll system, no reconciliation step between timekeeping and pay.

Built for ABSSB contributions.

The engine is designed for Antigua and Barbuda Social Security Board rates, the insurable earnings ceiling, and both employer and employee portions, rolling out through our launch partner program. The Medical Benefits Scheme and Education Levy are part of the same design.

IRD reporting and year-end documentation.

Inland Revenue Department schedules, annual returns, and full audit documentation. XCD currency formatting and a compliant pay stub layout are part of the Antigua and Barbuda design, rolling out through our launch partner program.

Position-based management for tourism and hospitality.

Positions exist independently of the people filling them. Food handler permits, hospitality certifications, and professional licenses attach to the position, not just the individual. Compliance alerts fire before credentials lapse.

Date-effective corrections for seasonal workforces.

Every record is date-stamped. Rehires, seasonal rate adjustments, and backdated corrections flow into the right pay period with the right rate applied. No recalculating affected cycles in a spreadsheet.

Data hosted in Canada, governed by Canadian law.

All data is hosted on AWS in Montreal, operated by Nortek Solutions Inc. (Workzoom's parent company). Canadian federal privacy law governs. No third-country data transfers unless you operate in those countries.

07b Statutory rates

Statutory payroll rates for Antigua & Barbuda

Current employee and employer contribution rates, ceilings, and thresholds set by the issuing authority. Workzoom configures and maintains these rates in the platform, reviewed quarterly and on every statutory change, so payroll runs use the current values.

Antigua & Barbuda Social Security employer contribution 9.5% 2026 Antigua Social Security Board

Deep dive

More about Antigua and Barbuda HR and payroll.

01

Antiguan and Barbudan HR and payroll on Workzoom

Antigua and Barbuda is a Caribbean nation with a workforce concentrated in tourism, financial services, and public sector. The HR and payroll requirements reflect the operational realities of Caribbean employment law, the statutory contribution framework that applies locally, and the workforce composition typical of small-island economies.

Workzoom supports Antigua and Barbuda with HR, Workforce, and Talent today, calculating pay to gross and exporting time and leave data to feed your existing payroll; full gross-to-net for Antigua and Barbuda is on our roadmap. The platform's architectural depth applies identically across the region, with each jurisdiction's requirements handled natively rather than as a layer on a foreign engine.

02

Workforce composition and platform fit

Antigua and Barbuda employers operate across hospitality, financial services, retail, telecom, and public sector segments. Each segment has its own operational profile, and the HR platform needs to absorb that variation. Workzoom's four suites handle the cross-sector reality without requiring per-segment configuration that fragments the organization.

The platform is sized for employers between 50 and 5,000 employees, which covers the operating range of most formal Antiguan and Barbudan employers. Smaller organizations may find the platform more capability than they need; mid-market and larger operators find the architectural fit clean.

03

Multi-island operations within the country

Antigua and Barbuda's two main islands operate as a single country with workforce coordination that often spans both. Workzoom's multi-site model handles cross-island operations on a single employee record, with location-specific scheduling, timekeeping, and reporting where required.

The pattern translates to multi-island Caribbean operations broadly. The same architectural approach that serves Antigua and Barbuda customers can scale to organizations with operations across St. Kitts and Nevis, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, or any multi-island Caribbean territory.

04

Implementation and ongoing support

Implementation timeline targets 4 to 8 weeks for most mid-market Antiguan and Barbudan organizations. The Caribbean implementation methodology built up from Bahamian customers informs the playbook for Antigua and Barbuda, where HR, Workforce, and Talent are live and full gross-to-net payroll is on the roadmap. Phased rollout starting with the highest-friction modules ensures quick wins build credibility for the broader transformation.

Ongoing support runs through the same channels that serve North American customers. The Antigua and Barbuda customer gets the full Workzoom support experience rather than a regional variant. The unified support model matches the unified platform architecture.
