3 Ways To Streamline Your Payroll Process

Run a Google search for “why people hate payroll departments” and you’ll come across endless articles bashing human resources. Some of the many reasons commonly cited include overcomplicated processes, incompetence, and failure to address all but the least important problems. While not all companies lump payroll into HR, the criticisms can often still apply. Legacy software, inefficient procedures, and employee frustrations can be endemic to payroll.To solve these problems, most organizations should take a multi-pronged approach, addressing employee development, siloed or unwieldy workflows, and technology issues. Hire and train good employees, hand them well-crafted, up-to-date SOPs, and give them the tools they need to do their work quickly and accurately. Below is a look at some of the best ways to troubleshoot and optimize your payroll processes.1
