Who is this course aimed at? This two day course is essential for anyone who is responsible for German payroll.
Most people working in payroll have no structured training and they have to operate on the basis of what they have ‘picked up’ over the years. The material covered is presented in a jargon free, easy to understand format and is immediately practical to one’s work as a payroll professional.
What will I learn? This extremely practical course deals with all of the issues, which are important to anyone either working in, or responsible for, the payroll function. The course covers all of the essential rules in the operation of PAYE tax and social insurance; it outlines the rights and obligations of both employers and employees. It uses clear examples to illustrate many of the points raised.
Whether you are new to German payroll, or have years of experience, you will not find a more comprehensive or useful course.
At the end of this course delegates will have received a detailed overview of the complex German payroll legislation and they will gain the knowledge and confidence to complete complicated processes internally.
