What Canadian Law Requires
HR Software for Canadian Employers
Canadian HR is federal and provincial at once: the CRA governs payroll deductions nationally while employment standards are set province by province. The cards below set out what that means in practice — and, plainly, which parts HRMZY does and does not do for you.
CRA payroll deductions
HRMZY does not ship CRA payroll tables, and it does not calculate CPP or EI for you. Its payroll engine is configurable: you enter the rates, thresholds and salary components that apply to you, and HRMZY applies them on every pay run and carries them onto the payslip.
Records of Employment
HRMZY does not generate a Record of Employment or file one with Service Canada. What it holds is the underlying record — pay periods, gross and net pay, approved leave and clocked attendance per employee — so the figures an ROE needs come from one place rather than being reassembled by hand.
Year-end reporting
T4 and T4 Summary preparation is not built in. HRMZY keeps a full year of per-employee earnings and deductions in one record, with payslip PDFs and Excel salary reports, so the totals your accountant or filing software needs are exported rather than rebuilt from monthly workings.
Workers’ compensation
Premiums are not rated or tracked for you, and there are no industry classification codes in the product. HRMZY produces the wage base a premium is assessed on — gross earnings per employee, per period — and keeps it with the rest of the pay run.
Statutory holidays
Statutory holidays differ by province, and HRMZY does not ship provincial calendars preconfigured. You maintain the company holiday calendar, and an individual holiday can be targeted at particular departments, designations or employment types rather than applied to everyone.
PIPEDA and Quebec’s Law 25
Compliance with a privacy statute is a property of how you configure and operate the platform — you remain the controller — rather than something software can carry on its own. HRMZY provides the tooling: role-based permissions, per-employee data export, anonymisation, and private storage for documents that is not web-readable.
French interface
French is available as an interface language and each person chooses their own; it stays with them. Coverage follows the translation catalogue, so a newer screen that has not been translated yet is shown in English rather than left blank. HRMZY makes no claim about the Official Languages Act.
Paying employees
HRMZY does not generate bank payment files and has no direct-deposit integration. The payment method is recorded against the pay run, and payslips and salary reports export for whoever actually makes the transfers.
