Advantages of payroll outsourcing...

1. Free up your time and that of others in your team in this area. Allowing you to focus on essential and money-making tasks, plus future growth opportunities. If you consider how much time is spent on the payroll internally, and any issues/errors to be dealt with after, it would be considerable

2. Increase accuracy of payroll processing and decrease errors and risk, giving you access to experts  in their field and ensuring complex tasks are completed thoroughly

3. Reduce costs, when considering the elements needed to run payroll - including the necessary technology, printer, ink, paper, expertise to list just a few!

4. Remove the need to personally stay on top of legislative requirements and tax procedures. Plus the training (and retraining as people leave) and the monitoring this would require

5. Beneficial complimentary services such as a technology platform. You should have access to a versatile agency software package to base your business admin around. Helping with work flow, efficiency, reporting and temp recruitment compliance amongst other elements

6. Cost flexibility - you only pay for the service levels used

7. A secure and reliable offering, with good controls in place
