2023 National Payroll Week - celebrating payroll

4th - 8th September 2023

National Payroll Week will be here before we know it, with a great opportunity to celebrate all the hard work that payroll teams do to keep the UK paid.

But this year, we’d like to draw attention to another crucial business area that couldn’t function without the involvement of Payroll: Rewards and benefits programmes.

Benefits, rewards, and employee wellbeing

With the ever-increasing need to offer financial support and guidance to employees, businesses rely on effective solutions that ensure the attraction, retention, and wellbeing of their workforce.

And although it’s within the remit of Human Resources to implement these schemes, it’s Payroll who ensure their successful (and accurate!) rollout.

Question: Imagine HR and Payroll are driving an employee wellbeing program car. Who do you think is in the driver’s seat, and who’s in the passenger’s seat?

Answer: When it comes to employee financial wellbeing, HR would be in the passenger seat giving directions, and Payroll would be doing the driving. This is a great analogy for the rollout of employee wellbeing programmes, i.e. those that involve strategic planning (HR) that rely on the administrative capabilities (Payroll) for a successful implementation.

Payroll questions

Payroll’s part in disseminating rewards and benefits programmes to employees means they are usually the first department called when things don’t look right. In fact, any issue that influences pay is automatically associated with Payroll, putting them front and centre in helping employees in this area.
