Improving your Payroll Process

How well is your payroll process working each month? Do you feel like there are improvements that could be made but you don’t know where to start? Here are some easy ways to ensure compliance, stay ahead of new regulations, and keep payroll easy to manage for your employees.

As HMRC makes changes to furlough and other payroll-related requirements, resources can be stretched thin in the payroll department. Compliance can be more difficult to manage without expertise or constant research. The first step to simplifying payroll is getting rid of manual processes, paperwork, and spreadsheets.

Using payroll software to process payroll is a great first step, but what happens if you run into issues running payroll? It is important to use a software solution that offers help from a real person when you need it – not just a computer. If a question comes up, you need to know there is a team waiting to answer your call.

Integration is another key component to selecting the right payroll software. Employee data is the same for payroll and HR, so if you can integrate your payroll and HR systems you can reduce paperwork and redundant processes. You also have more security for employee data by not using paper processes or email to manage employee information. Using integrated payroll and HR software provides reporting capabilities that can help identify issues, employee trends, and help you make changes to the organisation.
