Migrate to the latest version of Rise
Rise began as a simple payroll app, but we’ve grown into Canada’s leading all-in-one people platform. If you were sent this link, you are still using our legacy setup. Now’s the time to upgrade! It’s free, takes less than a minute, and unlocks a world of new features for your organization.

Important: Starting April 16, 2025, access to saved and custom payroll reports—including employee history, accruals, WCB/EHT, and more—will be permanently removed from legacy accounts. To retain full access to your payroll reporting tools, please migrate to the latest version of Rise by April 16.
