Our Payroll Services Give You Back Your Time

When you start out in business on your own, in nearly all cases there will just be you and perhaps a partner or two, but if the business gets off the ground successfully, in a few months’ time you will need to start taking on employees.

To begin with, it will probably be just one employee and that may be to assist with the office work, or perhaps as a salesman or woman. A little later on, you will probably take on another employee, and then more as your business expands.

When you take on an employee you immediately walk into a bunch of regulations both in regards to taxes and your pension scheme. If your employee is eligible, and most are, you will have to set up a pension scheme and contribute to it. You may need your accountant to assist you with this. However, when it comes to payroll, you can probably manage to deal with all the paperwork when you only have one or two employees.

Spending ½ day per week or more on payrol

However, your business expands further, and suddenly you find that you are spending ½ day per week sorting out payroll because some employees get paid at different hourly rates, some may be on benefits, salesmen may be paid a different amount every month because they get a commission, and so on. You also have to file all the tax returns with HMRC, and you are not allowed to make mistakes because they will fine you if you do.

It is at this point that many business owners / directors realise that payroll is becoming way too tricky and taking up far too much time, when they could be doing something useful – like taking on new customers for instance!

This is when they quickly begin to take an interest in the UK payroll services that we provide at PayCheck. We can handle part or all of your payroll if you wish, including paying your employees, because we are a BACS approved bureau which means that we are allowed to send payments on behalf of our clients.

Included in our UK payroll services is your auto enrolment pension scheme if you wish us to run that for you as well. As with your payroll, that can also become more and more complicated the more employees you have.

Why not just hand the whole thing over to us? After all, our prices start at just £35.00 a month.

Why You Should Offer An Extra Service To Your Accountancy Practice Clients

Over the last few years, payroll has become more and more time-consuming for small and medium sized businesses, with the result being that many of them are now outsourcing their payroll to their accountants or to specialist payroll bureaus who can do everything for them. Large businesses with many employees can afford to employ a payroll specialist in-house, but when you only have ten, twenty, or fifty, that is not practical. At the same time, the payroll can become extremely complex and difficult to manage for a small enterprise. Different employees can have benefits which mean that their taxes differ from someone on the same wage doing the same job. A Sales team on commission have a different amount of income every month. Other staff members may do overtime. It can all get very complicated and can get on top of a staff member who was hired for a particular position, and then had to be trained up to carry out the payroll on a part-time basis, thereby also taking that employee away

Why Should You Outsource Your Payroll In The UK?

If you run a big business – one with more than 250 employees – carrying out your payroll function is going to take up quite a bit of time. However, a business of that sort of size and larger can afford to hire a payroll manager, and in some instances run a payroll department. However, there are only a few thousand businesses in the UK of this sort of size. There are over 1.3 million with less than 50 employees, and so it is not affordable to hire a payroll manager because there is not enough work to justify it.   If a business of that sort of size is going to do the work in-house, the costs can mount up though. You have the costs of software, training staff to do the work, printers, printing and distributing payslips, creating tax returns, and the hours that staff are engaged on the work, and you might be surprised at just how much that all adds up to. It is usually a lot more cost-effective to use payroll bureau services in the UK than do it in-house. The Possibility Of Errors
