What are managed payroll services?


Instead of your company having an in house payroll department, you can outsource your payroll responsibilities to another company that specialises in providing payroll services.

The third party provider will manage every part of your payroll process, however for them to do this you will have to give them information about your employees, including the hours worked and the rate of pay for each pay period.

All of the rest of the payroll process will be managed by the third party provider.

It is up to you how much of the payroll process you outsource to a third party, completely outsourcing the process will be inclusive of many of the functions, inclusive of the calculation of gross wages, setting up a payroll system, making any necessary subtractions inclusive of pension, student loan debts, taxes and national insurance.

It will also ensure that you are compliant with tax and payroll regulations and these change over time.

They will be able to print and send payslips, or email them if you prefer.

They can make the deposit to your employees bank accounts, enter any and all payroll data, prepare and submit tax filings for your employees and complete and file any other essential paperwork not listed, including the submission of RTI's (Real Time Information) to HMRC.

Are there any benefits to managed payroll services?


Benefits to outsourcing your payroll to a third party so that they can manage your payroll services are varied.

You will immediately see a financial benefit, often payroll companies can save you money as you are no longer having to employ someone, or a team of people, to do the job.

There are further savings to be made, including any licensing fees for payroll software, any supplies and equipment, for example perforation machines, ink and paper, printers, and you will not have to pay for the ongoing training and development of your payroll staff.

When you outsource your payroll to a third party payroll provider you will immediately see gains for you and your company in time and money. This will free your employees from the complex administrative duties involved in payroll allowing them to focus on the actual business.

There will be further benefits in terms of increased HMRC compliance, as you will be outsourcing to an HMRC compliant payroll provider and security.

As a company it will no longer be your responsibility to keep abreast of any legislative changes in taxation or payroll, or worry about meeting deadlines, or ensure that you are compliant with any local, state or federal laws in payroll and taxation as this will be managed by a specialist payroll company.

Moreover, as the payroll provider will be managing many accounts from different companies, they will ensure that they have state of the art encryption, firewalls and any other security devices to protect yours and their clients employees data.

This ensures that the risk of theft, security breaches or fraud is minimised and that any data remains confidential and secure.

However, even though you are getting a third party to process your companies payroll you will still have oversight and control of this process.

You will have complete access and control over the process through reports, payroll software, and importantly access to you payroll manager who can answer any of your queries, or deal with any queries from your employees.

Should my business invest in managed payroll services?


Every type and size of business can benefit from managed payroll services.

If you are a large company and already employ your own in house payroll department, you will immediately see a saving, as you will no longer have to be paying wages or any benefits to a dedicated payroll team as this will be outsourced at a much cheaper rate.
