Security · Facilitation How a Facilities Services Company with 35,000 Employees Increased Retention by 15% Across Thailand
Salary Hero integrates and works directly with employers to provide earned wage access and financial wellness products.
A large facilities services company operating roughly 4,800 sites across Thailand partnered with Salary Hero to support its 35,000-strong workforce, split between 24,000 monthly-paid and 11,000 bi-weekly-paid employees. The rollout included full end-to-end integration with the company's SAP SuccessFactors payroll system, allowing employees to access Salary Hero without disrupting existing HR processes.
Since launch, the company has seen a 15% increase in employee retention, with more than 50% of staff engaging with the platform monthly.
The company's CEO said, "Salary Hero is a key part of our employee proposition. We are a people business, and Salary Hero makes a tangible difference to our turnover and recruitment costs by helping put our people first."
Employees have felt the impact directly. Khun Pramode, one of the company's staff, shared: "I love the flexibility I get with Salary Hero. My daughter fell sick a few months ago and I needed money for medicine for her condition. Salary Hero was a savior and helped me in my time of need. I am grateful to PCS and my boss for access to Salary Hero."

Our Origin
We saw the problem first-hand. Then we built the solution.
Salary Hero was co-founded by Jonathan Nohr and Prabhav Rakhra, both former Bain & Company consultants based in Bangkok. While working with manufacturing and hospitality clients, they kept seeing the same pattern: workers leaving before payday to take out high-interest loans, missing shifts because of financial anxiety, quitting jobs over a single unexpected expense.
The problem wasn't that workers didn't earn enough, it was that they had already earned the money but couldn't access it until an arbitrary payday weeks away. The solution was obvious: give workers access to wages they've already earned. The execution required building financial infrastructure that works at scale for Thailand's 40+ million formal workforce.
Since launching in 2021, we've helped 300,000+ workers access their earned wages, displaced over ฿1.7 billion in payday loan activity, and partnered with 200+ employers to make financial wellness a standard employee benefit, not a luxury.
"Eight motorcycle drivers waiting at the factory gate. Workers handing over their ATM cards and PINs. This was the moment we knew we had to build Salary Hero."
