Zenefits
integration for HRBench

Zenefits reporting and people intelligence

HRBench connects to Zenefits, now the TriNet HR Platform, and turns your people, time-off, and worked-hours data into 45+ ready-made metrics, then adds the workforce benchmarks and engagement surveys Zenefits keeps behind higher plans and add-ons. You get turnover, retention, absence, and headcount reporting without a plan upgrade, a separate analytics product, or a report to build.

Why Zenefits teams bring in HRBench

  • Analytics sits a plan tier up, and engagement sits a tier above that. On Zenefits, the entry plan gives you pre-built reports, advanced and customizable analytics starts at the Growth plan, and employee engagement and feedback only arrive with the top Zen plan. HRBench includes 45+ ready-made metrics, 25+ predictive metrics, and engagement surveys for every customer, with no tier to climb.
  • Deeper people analytics runs on a bolted-on layer. Zenefits added its analytics through a third-party analytics partner rather than building it into the HR record, so the insight lives in a product you license and stand up next to the platform. HRBench reads your Zenefits data and returns the metrics in one place, with nothing extra to buy or configure.
  • Standard reporting is hard to shape. Reviewers call Zenefits reporting basic and hard to read, with limited control over how employees group and how reports get built. HRBench ships the metric already built, so you open turnover or absence and read the answer instead of assembling it.
  • Zenefits reports compare you only to yourself. The platform measures your own headcount and time-off with no external yardstick. HRBench adds cross-company workforce benchmarks, so you can see whether your turnover or absence rate is normal for your size and industry.

What a Zenefits shop builds with HRBench

  • Headcount and org structure over time. Track headcount by location, team, and department from your Zenefits people and org records, and watch how the structure shifts month to month.
  • Turnover and retention, cut by team and location. HRBench reads employment history to calculate turnover, new-hire retention, and tenure, then breaks each one down by the groups you already manage in Zenefits.
  • Absence and time-off patterns. Zenefits time-off events become absence rate, time-off usage by team, and seasonality, so you can spot where coverage gets thin before it turns into a problem.
  • Worked-hours and overtime load. Timecards from Zenefits turn into hours-worked and overtime views by team and location, so you can see where the work concentrates. HRBench reads hours, not pay, so this is a labor-hours picture rather than a dollar cost.
  • Engagement next to the workforce picture. Engagement surveys are included for every HRBench customer, and HRBench reads the results beside your Zenefits headcount, tenure, and absence data, so you can read engagement against tenure and absence instead of in isolation.

Frequently Asked Questions

If you don't find the information you're looking for, please don't hesitate to contact us directly, and our team will be happy to assist you.

01

Does HRBench integrate with Zenefits?

Yes. HRBench connects to Zenefits, now the TriNet HR Platform, and reads your people, employment, org, time-off, and worked-hours data on a scheduled sync. Whether your account still shows the Zenefits name or has moved to the TriNet HR Platform, the connection works the same way. Setup runs about 4 to 6 weeks, faster for smaller teams.

02

What Zenefits data does HRBench read?

HRBench reads the workforce core: employee and employment records, your company, location, team, and department structure, time-off and absence events, and worked-hours timecards. It does not read Zenefits payroll dollar amounts, benefit enrollments, PTO balance figures, or dependents. So HRBench measures your people, their time, and your org structure, not compensation or benefits spend. Naming what does not sync is what keeps the metrics you see honest.

03

What can HRBench measure from Zenefits data?

HRBench turns Zenefits data into 45+ metrics: headcount and growth, turnover and retention, tenure, absence and time-off usage, worked hours and overtime, and org structure by team and location. It also adds 25+ predictive metrics, such as flight-risk and turnover forecasts, built from the same records.

04

Does HRBench replace Zenefits reporting?

No. HRBench sits on top of Zenefits. You keep running HR, time, and payroll in Zenefits, and HRBench turns the data it holds into ready-made metrics, benchmarks, and predictions. It is the reporting layer, not a system of record.

05

Does HRBench work with the TriNet HR Platform and HR Plus?

Yes. Zenefits, the TriNet HR Platform, and TriNet HR Plus are the same system under different names after TriNet's acquisition. HRBench connects to it the same way regardless of which label your account carries today.

06

Can HRBench track absence and worked hours from Zenefits?

Yes, and it is a strength of the Zenefits connection. Time-off events and timecards both sync, so HRBench reports absence rate, time-off usage by team, hours worked, and overtime. Because Zenefits payroll amounts do not sync, this is a labor-hours view rather than a dollar cost.

07

Can HRBench show how our Zenefits numbers compare to other companies?

Yes. Standard Zenefits reports compare you only to your own history. HRBench adds cross-company workforce benchmarks, so you can see whether your turnover, tenure, or absence rate is typical for your size and industry. Benchmarks are included for every HRBench customer.

08

Does HRBench include engagement surveys with Zenefits data?

Yes. Engagement surveys are included for every HRBench customer, not gated to a top plan tier the way engagement and feedback are on Zenefits. HRBench reads survey results next to your Zenefits headcount, tenure, and absence data, so sentiment sits beside behavior.

09

How long does it take to connect Zenefits to HRBench?

About 4 to 6 weeks for most teams, and faster for smaller organizations. Connecting the data is quick. The timeline covers mapping your groups and locations, checking the metrics against what you see in Zenefits, and setting up the dashboards your team will use.
