Payroll is the process and department responsible for ensuring that employees get the right pay and benefits to compensate them for their work.

This can include complex calculations and deductions so it’s important to get it right for every employee.

Yet, many organisations still spend many unnecessary hours manually managing payroll and are prone to calculation errors.
