Enabling Payroll & HR Systems to Drive Operational Efficiency #127The second of five episodes, where we will address crucial topics that HR and payroll leaders can't ignore, as they seek to create the right people management ecosystem for their business.Due to rapid growth or change accelerated by a revolution in ways of working post-pandemic, some businesses have been forced to streamline their operations and reduce multiple systems and tools into one. With no central governance, this caused havoc for payroll and HR.Add in the complexities of an increasingly remote workforce and a looming threat for businesses that have inherited legacy tech from M&As, and operations could well be at their most fraught. So much so that some believe payroll should defect and become its own function away from HR and finance.In this climate of operational uncertainty, our esteemed panel is discussing all of these industry trends, expert predictions and real-life case studies in detail during an insightful, but accessible episode.In this payroll podcast episode, we discover:What our comprehensive Future of Work and People insight survey is telling usHow inefficiencies in your operation really happen in the first placeThe threat of historic mergers and acquisitions pose on wider strategiesThe opportunities of remote working from talent to wellbeingBoth sides of the debate: Should payroll become its own function outside of HR and finance?How to create a winning business case for HR and payroll investmentOur panellists:Nick Day, Founder of JGA Payroll Recruitment - nick@jgarecruitment.comBob Rehill, Founder of Bob Rehill Partnership NetworkChris Kirby, Senior Manager, LACE PartnersThe Payroll Podcast HostNick Day, MD at JGA Recruitment.  Nick is a leading authority on HR and payroll issues and hosts two popular podcast shows, The HR L&D Podcast and The Payroll Podcast.Who should watch it?  All payroll and HR professionals working within the private sector for mid-market and enterprise organisations.Payroll Recruitment: If you require the support of a specialist payroll recruitment agency, please also contact me!  I would love to help show you what a great Payroll recruitment agency experience feels like!  You can reach out to me directly at nick@jgarecruitment.com or give me a call – at 01727 800 377www.jgarecruitment.comThanks for listening – I look forward to bringing you the next episode of the Payroll Podcast real...

Nick Day is joined on The Payroll Podcast by Ted Bechman, the Chief Finance Officer and Founder of Income Group!Now, with everyone predicting that 2023 will be a year of evolution for the payroll industry, Nick invited Ted Bechman on to the 121st episode of The Payroll Podcast Show to find out more about a hot topic that exists right in the centre of this evolution and that’s to discuss Earned Wage Access (also known as EWA) or Pay-On-Demand services as its also known.Nick wanted to determine what EWA means for payroll – is it an opportunity or a threat?Income Group have recently developed IGsend, an Instant Payment service for busy payroll teams. IGsend is a solution that enables payroll teams and small business owners to make instant payroll payments in just a couple of clicks, enabling employees to be paid more frequently or in line with their working patterns.There is a lot of misconception around current EWA solutions, with many payroll professionals still unaware of how far the needle has moved since the concept was first introduced. For example, the Income Group EWA IGsend solution comes at no additional cost to employees, meaning they can access wages earned in real-time for free.So, with 80% of employees saying they would prefer to have their pay automatically streamed into their bank accounts as they earn it and with 91% of millennial workers stating that they think their employer should provide Earned Wage Access – Nick wanted to find out more today about the evolution of Earned Wage Access and who better to ask than the founder of Income Group – Ted Bechman!In this “EWA - Opportunity or Threat for the Payroll Professional?” episode with Ted Bechman on The Payroll Podcast, we also explore:What does the word payroll mean to you?Why is the payroll professional community the best-kept corporate secret?Is humility always a strength?EWA is not new – why is it different this time?Are we now in the perfect storm of need, technology and management?There has been pushback from the Payroll community - are the concerns justified?EWA is just the beginning of the journey - what is the direction of travel?Is EWA a cost of employment?Should the employee bear the cost of EWA in part?Is the return on investing in EWA compelling?What do you think the future of payroll looks like?Links highlighted in this “EWA - Opportunity or Threat for the Payroll Professional?” episode are included below:Website: https://www.incomegroup.co.ukIGsend Demo: https://incomegroup.co.uk/igsend/#demoLinkedIn Company Page to Follow: https://linkedin.com/company/income-group/Ted Bechman LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/ted-bechman-b7102a1/" rel="noopener...

Wow, I cannot believe I am bringing you the 100th episode!Today I will summarise some of the critical topics The Payroll Podcast has covered. These topics include payroll tax compliance; employee benefits; the use of technology; automation; innovation; global complexities; education; payroll's evolution from transactional operation to strategic function; payroll career pathways, and much more.The Covid pandemic accelerated a change in perspective towards Payroll. Payroll professionals were rightly praised as they worked tirelessly to keep the UK paid after over 11.7 million employee jobs were put through the furlough scheme at the cost of £70 billion. World leaders, such as the Australian Prime Minister, Scott Morrison, even publicly thanked the efforts of payroll practitioners "for playing your part in what has been an extraordinary effort." As a result, Payroll has been thrust into the limelight, and with it, we have seen an explosion of new payroll career pathways open within the industry.Therefore, as we embark on the next 100 episodes, I will continue to endeavour to cover a wide range of topics, from digitisation and automation to global payroll transformation and emerging trends, and much more!However, before we look forward, I also want to look back at some of the many insights and conversations that have helped shape the payroll industry into what it is today.Here are 18 key takeaways I have discovered during the 99 episodes recorded to date:Automation of payroll processes is increasing, allowing payroll professionals to focus on more strategic tasks and improve efficiency. Meanwhile, remember that automation and technology will not replace the payroll professional, but tasks within the traditional payroll role will.Integrating AI and machine learning in payroll processes will become more prevalent, providing new opportunities for automation, data analysis, and process optimisation. Companies are continuing to invest in payroll technologies. HCM and Payroll tech is a multi-billion-pound industry. On-Demand Pay is a particular area companies invest in because these solutions help employers manage earned wage access requests. Will this mean the dissolution of our traditional payroll cycles? Quite possibly.The employee is now the centre of the payroll experience. The employee payroll experience is becoming more critical as companies strive to attract and retain top talent. Companies will increasingly focus on creating a positive payroll experience for employees to improve retention and attract top talent.Payroll professionals should stay informed about the latest trends and technologies in the industry to position themselves for success in the future.Continuing education and professional development are essential for payroll professionals to stay ahead of the curve. Skills are the currency of the future; employees need to take actions that enable them to prepare for the future of automation, analytics and AI.The increase in global workforces will result in more cross-border payments and expertise concerning country-related payroll legislation. The barrier to hiring talent in international locations has been lowered, so this trend will only increase. In addition, the ability to deliver global payroll services remotely will become increasingly important, requiring new technologies and strategies to ensure smooth operations.There are a variety of career pathways available in Payroll across Global Payroll, data analytics, and technology. In fact, we recently identified over 60 career pathways, and yet I suspect that number has already increased to almost 100.Cloud-based payroll systems will continue to gain popularity as they provide increased flexibility, scalability, and security for remote payroll operations.Smart Interactive Payslips will make the payment process more efficient and...

A Payroll Podcast 2020 Payroll Budget Special episode, featuring Samantha Mann, Policy and Research Technical Lead at the Chartered Institute of Payroll Professionals.The Budget takes place against the backdrop of the global outbreak of COVID-19.Despite Black Monday and considerable market turmoil, the fundamentals of the UK economy remain strong and it appears that governments all over the world are working hard to help people prepare for what may be to come.From a recruitment perspective, employment growth remains strong and actually reached a record high in the three months to December 2019 with and earnings growth above inflation.However, the recent COVID-19 outbreak is obviously creating considerable uncertainty in the short-term and already we have seen the Bank of England slashing interest rates from 0.75% to 0.25% rate to help, but there have also been plans made in the latest budget to combat this uncertainty too.On this Payroll Budget 2020 & Navigating Covid-19 episode of The Payroll Podcast, Samantha Mann tells us how the new budget plans will support individuals affected by COVID-19 and of course how these changes will subsequently impact payroll professionals tasked with calculating, implementing and processing the proposals.Of course, this is the first Budget of Prime Minister Boris Johnson's majority government, the first of a new decade, and the first since the UK’s departure from the European Union (EU). It is also the first budget delivered by new Chancellor of the Exchequer, Rishi Sunak who was only appointed on February 13!So, stay tuned as we dive into the 2020 budget to discuss statutory sick pay, tax rates and thresholds, off-payroll working, employment allowance increases and some surprise announcements!This Payroll Budget 2020 & Navigating Covid-19 cover questions including: The last Budget was delivered by former Chancellor Phillip Hammond in 2018, and this Budget was fraught with delay and news of sudden resignations – so, was this latest budget worth the wait?Public safety is, for obvious reasons, the government’s top priority in its response to COVID-19. So how will the Government emergency measures impact employers and payroll professionals as they process Statutory Sick Pay?Will a certificate beyond 7 days be required?Employers with less than 250 employees can reclaim the full amount of SSP paid, in respect of Covid-19 – but how?What benefits were announced for the self-employed who get coronavirus or have to self-isolate?The government is also temporarily removing the minimum income floor from universal credit. What will this mean when it comes to calculating universal credit entitlements?Has payroll become the main vessel in administering support to working families?What surprises were there in relation to tax rates and thresholds?What has happened in relation to employment allowance increases and how will the changes impact employers?Was the announcement of a call for evidence on how to address different tax outcomes for lower earners welcomed?What were the surprise announcements relating to the taxation of Company Cars and Vans, are Expenses and Benefits in Kind having a greater impact on the payroll profession?We hope you enjoyed this "Payroll Budget 2020...
