  • Overview


    About Tryton Foods Hull-based Tryton Foods has recorded a phenomenal growth in its 10-year history. Home to the Aunt Bessie’s convenience food range, sales have grown by 70 percent in the last five years. With 550 employees, up to 150 agency staff, three factories covering 185,000 square feet and up to 20 million Aunt Bessie’s Yorkshire puddings to produce every week, the company continuously reviews its business practices in order to sustain its rapid growth rate. The Challenge: Until 2004, Tryton Foods used a manual system for weekly paid employees, with employees punching a clock card at the start and end of each shift.The manual nature of the system resulted in a number of issues for Tryton Foods that were constant and, with a rapidly expanding workforce, were unlikely to improve. The Solution: Tryton Foods selected the web-based Kronos Workforce Central system, with biometric finger scanners to verify employees’ identities. Carol Fletcher explains, "There was no doubt in the minds of the project team that Kronos offered us a solution that would address the needs of the whole team — from HR and payroll to IT and Finance."
