The key remit of payroll professionals and teams is to ensure individuals are paid both accurately and on time for the work they carry out. Although there’s the common misconception outside of the industry that this is as simple as ‘pushing a big red button’, there’s an abundance of work that goes into ensuring people receive payment each pay day. Ensuring swift and accurate payment is complicated by ever-changing legislation and guidance, and the fact that pay is dictated by human actions, many of which can’t be predicted and payroll must respond swiftly to. This is why it’s so crucial to have appropriate, efficient payroll software in place, to make the task of meeting payroll’s core goal far simpler. Pay is highly emotive, as the money a person receives in their bank account will influence their ability to meet their financial commitments, e.g., mortgage, childcare, food, etc,. Therefore, it’s important for pay to be correct first time, and on time. Where pay is wrong or delayed, this can have a huge impact on employer-employee relations, and various pieces of research highlight the fact many people would leave their organisation if repeated payroll errors occurred. Payroll mistakes can also result in fines from HM Revenue and Customs or negative impacts on an organisation’s reputation. Ensuring your
payroll software is fit for purpose can help to mitigate against all of these risks.
The CIPP’s Software Directory has been designed to simplify the mammoth task of pinpointing the ideal payroll software, perfect for use in your organisation. With so many different software options now available, it’s easy to feel intimidated or like you’re drowning in a sea of choice. The directory first gives an overview of the suppliers included, and confirms which of the following features
they offer: ● payroll
● human resources (HR) ● expenses and benefits ● workforce management ● self-service.
Once it’s been established which features are available, there are dedicated tables which drill down into much further detail. It’s now commonly accepted that payroll touches base with a vast variety of other departments, and payroll software is no different. There are a range of functions payroll software can perform to enhance and improve the whole employee experience, from commencement of employment to when someone leaves a
Although the information within this directory has been supplied by providers of payroll and/or HR software or services it has not been verified by the CIPP. Additional market research should be conducted before engaging with any new supplier of software or services to ensure business needs are met.
