Key Facts:

Payroll should be measured as an end-to-end function, from the time employees start work to the time they receive payslips and yearly payment summaries. Coming up with a figure is not always easy, especially for businesses with limited resources.

Your real payroll cost is based on many “hard-to-measure” factors such as; time taken in preparation, time taken reporting, time taken EOFY processing and the cost of the payroll team itself. Understanding the perfect blend of full time, part time and casual employees is also essential to minimising cost.
