StartHR industry pack

HR & payroll for Interior Design

Fit-out crews, night shifts in malls and designer commissions — in one HR system.

Interior design and fit-out firms mix a creative studio with short, intense site projects — often at night inside malls and towers. StartHR keeps studio and site staff, access passes and project bonuses in one place.

The problem

What slows interior design HR teams down

Mall and tower landlords demand worker lists and valid passes before every job.
Crews switch projects weekly, so labour cost per project is guesswork.
Night work and overtime are tracked on paper.
Designers and sales staff fall under localisation quotas few firms monitor.
