We Are Celebrating National Payroll Week 2023

Importance of Payroll - What is Payroll?

The main aim within the payroll department at HR Connect, is to ensure our customers are paid:

• Accurately

• Correctly

• On time

• Compliantly, in line with legislation.

As a payroll team, we ensure that our customers are performing their legal duties, all staff are paid their hard-earned wages and ensure the economy continues to run.

The bottom line is, its all about pay! Employees who are paid correctly and accurately are happy employees, and our team at HR Connect make sure this is the end goal!
