Outsource your payroll today!

Is it time to look at outsourcing your Payroll?

At Monahans we believe Payroll is an integral part of all organisations, as it affects every aspect of your organisation, from company reputation through to the moral of your employees. Your Payroll Manager/Officer is not only responsible for prompt and accurate payment of employee salaries, but safeguarding the company’s reputation by ensuring compliance with necessary legislation.

Unfortunately, payroll errors are more common than you might think. Many businesses, particularly smaller ones, find it challenging to keep on top of the frequent and complicated changes surrounding payroll legislation.

If you can answer Yes to any of the questions below, it’s time to take a close look at outsourcing your payroll function, to allow you to concentrate on what you do best - grow your business:

In-house Payroll:

• Does it take longer than necessary to process the payroll?

• Are you concerned you may not be complying to all relevant legislation surrounding payroll, such as GDPR and auto-enrolment?

• Do you or your colleagues spend too much time working on payroll?

• Do you get complaints from your employees about Payroll mistakes?

Outsourcing can mean a reduced spend in the long term, ability to free up resources and improve turnaround times, allowing you and your employees to focus on the other important things that matter. If payroll is costing you too much time and money, you are making too many mistakes and you are finding compliance difficult, now might be the time to consider outsourcing.
