Focus on Patient Care

Automate rota creation, leave management, and compliance tracking so your clinical team spends more time with patients, not paperwork.

HR Challenges Facing Irish Healthcare Providers

Healthcare organisations operate under relentless pressure. Staffing gaps, regulatory scrutiny, and burnout threaten both care quality and compliance. PurpleTree addresses the workforce challenges unique to Irish healthcare.

  • Filling all clinical shifts — nights, weekends, public holidays — with qualified staff meeting HIQA patient dependency levels.
  • Managing fatigue, overtime, and shift patterns to prevent burnout and comply with Irish working time legislation.
  • Tracking professional registrations (NMBI, CORU), mandatory training renewals (CPR, safeguarding, infection control), and Garda vetting.
  • Maintaining HIQA, HSE, and GDPR compliance with audit-ready records and accurate payroll processing.

Irish Working Time Compliance for Healthcare

Round-the-clock healthcare creates real risk of breaching the Organisation of Working Time Act 1997. Staff fatigue endangers both employees and patients. HR Duo flags potential working time breaches during rota planning, tracks hours and rest breaks accurately, and generates the evidence you need if the WRC or HIQA come calling.

  • Built-in Irish health sector working time rules
  • Accurate tracking of hours, breaks, and overtime
  • Automated alerts for potential working time breaches
  • Ready-made reports for WRC and HIQA compliance
