6 HR tasks you can cross off with Heka

A quick summary:

New year, new priorities - and the same endless to-do list.

If you’re in HR or People Ops, you know how January feels. Strategy sessions. Payroll updates. End-of-year reports. New hires. Wellbeing planning. What if you could cross off a good chunk of those recurring admin headaches for good?

Discover how Heka can help you start the year lighter, calmer, and way more focused on what really matters: your people.

1. Say goodbye to benefit admin chaos

With Heka, you can finally let go of the manual load - no more reimbursement forms, approvals, or endless benefit tracking. Everything sits in one smart, automated platform. Employees choose what they need directly, and you can wave goodbye to those late-night email chains about gym memberships or therapy claims. Heka was designed to free HR leaders from admin so you can focus on strategy, not spreadsheets.

We handle the heavy lifting - managing benefits, reporting usage, tracking budgets - while you focus on engagement, culture, and growth. HR teams using Heka report spending far less time chasing receipts and far more time planning the year ahead. Heka cuts total

2. One platform, every benefit

You don’t need to spend another January researching new benefits; Heka brings together thousands of physical, mental, and lifestyle benefits - everything from gym memberships and yoga classes to therapy, nutrition support, and family care. You can even integrate the benefits you already offer.

So instead of constantly searching for new providers or managing multiple vendors, you can offer one personalised, flexible experience that adapts to the needs of your people - less admin, fewer renewals to manage, and no “benefits nobody uses” ever again.

3. No reimbursements. No forms. No stress.

Traditional wellbeing allowances often sound appealing - until you’re managing endless receipts, approvals, and spreadsheets. Heka removes that burden entirely. Employees use their allowance directly through the platform, removing the need for manual reimbursements or chasing invoices.

The result? Significant time and energy saved across both HR and Finance teams.

4. Insights at your fingertips

No more pulling data from dozens of systems - Heka gives you one simple dashboard that tracks usage, spend, and engagement. You’ll know what’s working, what’s not, and where to invest next. Data that once took hours (or days) to pull together? Now it’s ready before your morning coffee.

5. Self-service for employees = fewer HR queries

When employees can explore and choose benefits for themselves, your HR inbox stays blissfully quiet. Heka’s self-service setup means your people get autonomy - and you get fewer “Hey, how do I claim this?” messages.

6. A platform that evolves with you

Heka isn’t another HR system that needs a full overhaul every two years. Smart benefits technology and AI mean Heka scales with your business, your benefits strategy, and your people. That means no more hunting for benefits providers. Set it up once, and let it grow with you.
