Our payroll service can include:
We can also provide BACS payment processing for an additional charge and support employers with workplace pension auto-enrolment.
The exact service will be agreed around the size, frequency and complexity of your payroll.
Employers operating PAYE normally need to tell HMRC what employees have been paid and which deductions have been made on or before each payday. This is completed through Real Time Information reporting.
We can calculate the relevant pay and deductions and submit the required Full Payment Submission to HMRC. An Employer Payment Summary may also be required in certain circumstances, such as when reclaiming eligible statutory payments or when no employees have been paid during a tax month.
Once payroll has been processed, we provide a summary of the PAYE and National Insurance due. This gives you clear information about what needs to be paid to HMRC and helps you plan for the liability.
Changes to your workforce need to be reflected correctly in your payroll records.
For a new employee, we can use the information from their P45 or starter checklist to add them to the payroll and apply the appropriate tax code. You should provide the employee’s information before the payroll cut-off date wherever possible.
When someone leaves, we can include their final pay, process the leaving date and produce their P45. Keeping this information up to date also helps prevent discrepancies between your payroll records and the information held by HMRC.
Employee pay can involve several payments and deductions in addition to basic wages.
Depending on your agreed service, we can process items such as Statutory Sick Pay, Statutory Maternity Pay, overtime, bonuses, pension contributions, student loan repayments and Attachment of Earnings Orders.
You provide the relevant employee information and payroll changes for the period, and we incorporate them into the payroll calculations. We can also help you understand how a particular change will affect the employee’s gross pay, deductions and net pay.
Most employers have workplace pension responsibilities. These can include assessing employees, calculating contributions, processing deductions and providing information to the pension provider.
Our payroll service can work alongside your workplace pension scheme so that eligible pension contributions are reflected in each payroll run. We can also provide wider auto-enrolment support where required.
Combining payroll and pension administration helps reduce discrepancies between payslips and pension provider records.
At the end of the tax year, employers must complete their final payroll submissions and provide eligible employees with P60s.
We can manage the payroll year-end process, check that the relevant records are complete and prepare your payroll for the new tax year. This includes applying updated tax codes and payroll settings when the new tax year begins.
Keeping payroll records accurate throughout the year makes the year-end process considerably simpler.
Our Leeds payroll services can support:
We can provide payroll as a standalone service or alongside bookkeeping, annual accounts, VAT and wider business accountancy support.
Outsourcing payroll gives you access to an experienced payroll team without employing a dedicated payroll administrator internally.
It can help your business:
You remain responsible for supplying accurate and timely information, but we handle the agreed payroll calculations, reports and submissions.
1. We review your current payroll
We establish how frequently employees are paid, how many people are on the payroll and whether there are variable hours, pension deductions or statutory payments to process.
2. You provide the payroll information
Before the agreed cut-off date, you tell us about hours worked, salary changes, overtime, bonuses, absences, starters, leavers and any other relevant changes.
3. We process and check the payroll
We calculate gross pay, deductions, employer costs and net pay before preparing the payroll reports and payslips.
4. We submit the required information
We send the appropriate RTI submission to HMRC and provide details of the PAYE and National Insurance liability.
5. You pay your employees
We provide the employee payment information you need. BACS payment processing can also be arranged for an additional charge.
You do not normally have to wait until the start of a new tax year to change payroll provider. A mid-year transfer is usually possible when complete and accurate payroll records are available.
To transfer your payroll, we will generally require:
We can review the information supplied by your previous provider and agree a suitable date for taking over the payroll.
Our payroll services use straightforward fees based on the frequency, number of employees and complexity of the payroll.
Payroll services currently start from £2.75 per payslip, with minimum annual fees applying to weekly and monthly payrolls. Additional services, such as BACS payment processing, may carry a separate charge.
