Five Ways to ‘Level Up’ Your Business with Automated Payroll

Payroll automation by Chamsmobile

Payroll is an important part of a business; whether a start-up or an already existing business. Payroll is the easiest and most reliable way to handle the affairs of employees, such as compensation, calculating their wages, tracking hours worked, tax deductions, and other records. As a business owner, you recognize that to run a successful business, you need to track not only sales but also employees’ finances. However, keeping track of these finances can be exhausting and time-consuming.
Fortunately, automated payroll can help to make the process more seamless and less time-consuming.

We have collated five ways to successfully transition your business into automated payroll and improve business outcomes.


1. Ensure Compliance
It’s important to dot the legal i’s and cross the t’s while you’re preparing to level up to automated payroll. Payroll compliance is one important detail you shouldn’t leave out. Compliance has to do with adhering to all federal, state and local regulations that govern how employees are paid – minimum wage, tax, paid leave, overtime, etc. This helps businesses minimize compliance risks and makes payroll process error-proof.

2. Prepare your Employees
Some employees tend to see automated payroll as a threat that will push them out of their jobs and affect their means of livelihood. As a business owner or a manager, you should educate your employees about automated payroll; make them see how it will enhance their productivity rather than displace them. Here are some benefits you can use to sell the idea of automated payroll to your employees – automated payroll keeps your information organized, saves time and resources, reduces workload, is well secured, and helps eliminate errors.

3. Gradually Reduce/Eliminate the Use of Paper
As you prepare to transition to automated payroll, it would be advisable to keep records in electronic form and transfer existing employee information on paper to electronic format. This way, you can easily transfer the needed information to the Payroll software. Mind you, payroll data is highly sensitive; hence, exercise caution while duplicating the information to avoid employees’ data breach, loss of data or error.

4. Engage a Reliable Payroll Solution Provider
Hiring a reliable automated payroll service provider saves cost, reduces stress, increases flexibility, entrenches transparency and builds payroll continuity. Fortunately, Chamsmobile’s Payroll and HR solution can deliver all these and more.

5. Feedback
As much as automated payroll has enormous benefits, it is crucial to listen to your employees and get their feedback on their experience with the payroll solution. This will help you to determine whether it has been able to accomplish the goals which you set out to achieve. Do well to communicate their feedback to the service provider so that the needed actions will be taken to resolve the challenge. Oftentimes, retraining and provision of support to the employees can help improve their automated payroll experience.
