As foreign investments flowed into the country post-2011, the landscape for payroll services underwent a seismic shift. What was once perceived as trivial or inconsequential became a vital business function, spurring the emergence of numerous payroll outsourcing firms and fostering a burgeoning industry. The scepticism of yesteryears gave way to a demand for excellence and affordability in service provision. Today, as we stand on the cusp of a new era, traditional “Human Resources” departments are evolving into entities

focused on fostering organisational culture, employee well-being, and leveraging cutting-edge technologies like AI. The future promises radical transformations, and our industry must embrace these changes, adapting and innovating as we journey into uncharted territories.

May we navigate this evolving landscape with courage and conviction, charting a course toward a prosperous future.
