Chinook Bowladrome saves time with Powerpay

Ceridian Powerpay improves the accuracy and timeliness of Chinook Bowladrome’s HR and payroll processes through automated technologies.

A long-established entertainment destination, the Chinook Bowladrome offers public and league bowling to the Calgary community. With a full range snack bar, the site also appeals to groups for parties and events. The owner believes in giving back to the community and offers a Kids Bowl Free program and a Bowl for Kids fundraiser.

Payroll and compliance can be challenging for a small business

With numerous departments and cash flows, the manager spends a good portion of her day on administrative
bookkeeping activities and didn’t want the additional burden of doing payroll from scratch.

The Bowladrome staff consists of many part-time students that have extremely variable schedules (the owner works their schedules around their class times) and tends to turnover frequently. Setting up new employees needs to be easy.

Getting her staff their pay in a quick and compliant way is a top priority.
