     Key Pain Points for HR, Payroll, and Tax Leaders

    • Manual processes and administrative overload slow down teams, making unemployment claims management cumbersome and error-prone.
    • Poor customer service and lack of responsiveness from vendors lead to frustration, wasted time, and unresolved issues.
    • Navigating complex and ever-changing compliance regulations creates stress and risk for organizations trying to avoid costly mistakes.
    • Inefficient processes and unclear accountability result in missed opportunities for cost savings and optimized tax outcomes.

Do these key pain points resonate with you? If so, it may be time to look for a better solution. Many organizations feel trapped by the status quo, but Thomas & Company is committed to breaking this cycle. Our mission is to empower your success in today’s complex employment environment by offering proven expertise, innovative technology, and measurable value.

Operational Simplicity: Reducing Administrative Burden

Your goal is to avoid fragmented or overly-complex processes and reduce the administrative drag on your team. Thomas & Company’s SHIELD technology streamlines unemployment claims management, replacing tedious manual processes with intuitive tools, smart automation, and expert support. Users benefit from role-based dashboards, robust reporting, and direct team communication, making it easy to find information and manage claims efficiently. This eliminates administrative headaches and supports better outcomes, freeing your team to focus on strategic priorities.

One way that this is accomplished is that SHIELD tailors questions to each claimant’s separation reason, saving time and reducing frustration. Unlike other systems which can be complex and confusing, SHIELD’s user-friendly design protects your organization’s appeal rights and financial interests without unnecessary friction.
