Post-pandemic Payroll lessons

With people continuing to work from home, it’s important for a company’s HR and payroll teams to understand all the procedures and regulations that may have changed due to continued hybrid working, to ensure they are paid correctly.

Time for a Payroll and HR Audit?

While payroll and HR teams are busy managing company operations, it can be challenging to stop and take time to audit processes and look for improvements. Sometimes the largest functions like payroll and HR admin are using outdated tools that are not as efficient as they could be or using redundant processes that could be wasting resources. A quick audit of your payroll and HR systems can help identify gaps in technology, duplicate functions across teams, and other ways to improve operations.

There are ways to reduce time spent on payroll and improve processes without breaking the budget – or putting more stress on your team. Simple changes can make a huge difference in the long run.
