Payroll Backup Planning

July 30, 2009 by paularetallick Leave a Comment

Possibly due to the spread of swine flu but we have been fielding quite a number of enquiries from companies asking if we provide any kind of a payroll backup service.

Well the reality of the situation is its very hard to walk in and pick up someones payroll without any prior knowledge.  Even when we take on a new client in the Bureau it can take a couple of pays before we finally understand what the client wants.

However, in relation to providing payroll backup our clients don’t have to worry about it as Ezypay is the backup service and we certainly has sufficient staff to cover most situations but we can provider some help.

We have prepared a word document that you can download from HERE.  You should complete this document and keep it in a safe place so that in the event that your payroll person is not available then the new person has some idea as to what is going on.  Feel free to modify the document to meet your own requirements.

Do you have Payroll Backup?

July 16, 2009 by justin Leave a Comment

We were asked by a company today if we could provide payroll cover if their payroll person caught swine flu which raises a number of issues.

It is quite surprising how many companies don’t have any continuity plan in place when it comes to payroll.  I have been involved with clients who require their payroll person to come back in when on leave in order to do the payroll.

Payroll is not an area where anyone can do it or is allowed to do it.  Issues such as confidentiality are important also with current payroll legislation its no longer a simple task.

So the outcome of the meeting was Yes, we would help, as best we can, but our clients will come first.

One of the reasons why a company might outsource their payroll is due to a guaranteed continuity of supply.  We are always here so if your team is away on leave, involved in an accident or ill then there is little disruption to the payroll process.

So do you have a payroll continuity plan in place in the event of your payroll person not been available?  If not then I suggest you start writing up a Process Manual on how your payroll works, who does what etc.   Or look to outsource your payroll and not worry about it.
