making payroll payments properly effectively safely and on time throughout this webinar we’ll stroll you through the international pros and cons of a payroll wallet versus a payroll savings account how business precisely anticipate their payroll expenses to increase working capital and how improving Global payroll payments can turn them from a siled pane into a tactical possession so payroll can be difficult in enough in one country however when you’re doing it worldwide it’s next level and Beyond it becomes complicated for a range of reasons most significantly regulations compliance information security and banking rules then there are the sheer numbers they add more complexity the worldwide Workforce is currently three and a half billion people by 2030 it’s estimated that in Africa alone they will contribute and additional 1.1 billion individuals that number is currently 500 million just for for a scale then factor in that there are some 230 million businesses and growing all doing their own thing around the globe in the conventional payroll design there’s often a frustrating variety of different systems leading to lengthy manual processes and silos the number of Integrations could be non-existent in large quantities and or really really basic there’s no genuine consistency framework we’re living in a period of tech but payroll has been slow to get on board in fact as much as 25 of payroll is still done by hand frequently with pen and paper which just blows my mind whenever I I believe
about it to offer you an idea of how far there still is to come according to Deloitte just 11 of companies state they have Workforce information in real time that’s another number that provides me sleepless nights and quite frankly the more a service invests in global payroll the less of an image they see an absence of visibility likewise encompasses payroll payments and inability to precisely track these payments can cause compliance accidents in the last mile of the deal almost half of global services have actually expressed that they don’t have the level of standardization they need in their procedures or desire and as a result eighty percent of errors are because of time reporting poor HCM information data entry errors improperly communicated hires and terminations as well as lack management and system configurations and after that when you round it all off and the data is shipped to the wrong location the typical cost of a global data breach at this moment is 3.9 billion dollars as soon as payrolls are done we still require to move the cash around the globe payroll and payments don’t run smoothly if they count on the essential several procedures systems and partners it is just not possible so Johnny from a payments perspective and in your experience what else needs to be factored into the difficulties company face when they’re making payments to employees or otherwise that’s a great concern I constantly toss this back and state what is it what does not need to be consisted of best and what does
it require to be thought about there’s varying Bank information so the length of an eye band a swift an account number routing code per nation there’s payment time frames there’s payment abilities so can you pay it from International or do you need to pay from an in-country account do you have to pay from the client’s own in-country account so there’s intricacy anywhere you look right eventually building a knowledge base is definitely vital but all over you look with payroll payment they are like very payments no if however some infants about it you are all superheroes processing payments for payroll if you take a look at the sort of link between fintech and payroll it’s closer than ever I believe there’s now a bit more acknowledgment that payroll payments are definitely fundamental and technology is enabling us to kind of move forward with that it likewise also to add to that payroll and financing require to work closer together um with varying Bank Account Details varying banking requirements and setup processes is absolutely crucial that payroll and financing teams work closer together than ever um I’m constantly astonished when individuals say I’ve split payroll and payment um if you walk down the street and asked anyone what is payroll who doesn’t operate in the payroll profession would they split the payroll payment from calculation I would say no so why do we as an industry accept that why our payroll and payments so frequently split and cut up um eventually it’s payroll is an end-to-end process it’s the point of data collection all the way through to paying people anywhere they are however likewise paying statutory authorities and on statutory 3rd parties so with the
world we live in and wellness being increasingly more crucial to add to type of the level of intricacy there’s a growing number of advantages being organ or being used by companies across the world so again you’re simply looking to add a growing number of payments to this already intricate landscape so if you kind of got any experience well I’m from your large experience here and I make certain however have you got any experience in kind of real difficulties or genuine difficult sort of pay uses to play to pay individuals I think yeah I suggest over the last well yeah a number of decades I would definitely state that the larger an organization gets the more it tends to segregate the payroll and the payments functions um there are groups doing one part of the job there are teams feeding info into the next function as it were that’s actually managing the payment side of things however you understand in in my viewpoint and my experience that doesn’t always require to be the case you know long gone are the times where we require to produce extra handoffs in the processes that we operate in they simply make them more timely they make them less efficient and they do not make them what they need to be in in an era of tech and an era that you know that we are operating in today there is no reason why we are still making this as difficult as it requires to be agreed and appropriately as you stated payroll is the single greatest liability that any business has from a cost point of view from an impact viewpoint on staff members it is absolutely crucial that it’s done properly and on time so what we mean by that is not a day before not a day after on pay day and payments have to be done right it has the greatest damaging result on individuals’s wellness and numerous other aspects if individuals aren’t paid uh I’ve always been astonished coming into this Market sort of the last five to ten years is how little thanks the
payroll team get um so I’m unsure anybody on this kind of webinar has actually been informed thank you for processing my payroll correctly if you have it ‘d be great to hear your success story and whether that’s been from all staff members or not um but eventually payroll is such an important cycle all of us become aware of it when it fails everybody jumps up and down when it fails however when it goes right it’s just a tick box workout and I think that’s how it’s seen from the external deem well um so yeah it’s likewise like why WI-Fi Global why all of this things is absolutely crucial that all of this stuff is done correctly so leveraging the very first International Payments very first payroll payment solution is a terrific first step um supplying an end-to-end payroll service for your workers worldwide once again I believe is another big um process again aligning and ensuring you have standardization Worldwide procedures all of those things are absolutely crucial to success success of companies and minimizing the variety of tools platforms and checking account they need for their Global payroll too could not agree with you more and on the the front in regards to of the thank yous for getting payroll done I have actually never ever had a hundred thousand of them within a payroll cycle don’t anticipate to you do get the odd 5 or ten or whatever it might be with the with the the problems where things haven’t gone rather where they’re meant to be um I do not think any of us are really doing that for for the thanks
anyway we understand how how important a role it is which’s why we do it that’s why we get on with it and this is why we’re talking today about making it as easy as possible for everyone that’s involved in those processes and also so picture sorry I’m just I was simply gon na state picture the amount of thanks you got if you might cover the quantity of people that we cover within this webinar I’m sure we’re talking about hundreds of thousands possibly Millions envision getting that lots of thank you notes um I suggest it ‘d be interesting to see how many Post-it notes you got but it would absolutely be an intriguing task attempting to clean up all those up for sure oh definitely I can’t picture the size of my my Outlook inbox if that held true um you ‘d need days of the week to attempt to browse them and really see what was going on and type of try to return to everybody so proceeding appearance why do companies select to primary different bank accounts there are Papaya Global Survey businesses out there doing precisely this for particular nations and I’ve operated in a business or numerous companies doing exactly that I can state it doesn’t constantly feel effective and it does create more work I know we’re not intentionally doing that we’re not developing additional work for anybody where we don’t have to and anyone that’s dealing with that process I ‘d be interested to hear your thoughts Johnny why do you believe that we’re doing that in in the in the amount that we are I think many factors one is it’s the standard I think individuals have actually got so used to we require a new savings account we open an entity and appropriately so you require it for payroll functions however there are a variety of markets where it’s not a requirement so I believe it’s just been the standard and the standard the people have actually embraced and continue to do over years and years gone past to add to that individuals have actually looked at things like trust accounts and many other methods um to to type of do it so I think there’s a range I think this is a procedure that needs taking a look at it requires changing but eventually individuals are really stuck to what they recognize
with right um change is a challenging thing all of us do not like modification um so I believe it’s just sort of moving away from the norm as we’ve said so yeah so it keeps a great deal of track of stuff um I understand clearly the benefits of having preserving multiple checking account however there’s a substantial amount of intricacy chooses establishing a bank account preserving it guaranteeing it can send International transfers ensuring it’s established with the ideal user accesses for specific people so the intricacy is big but I think the honest response is modification um people haven’t been able to alter or have not had always the knowledge to actually make that change into alternate Solutions aside from opening a savings account I believe you have actually struck the nail on the head I think it is understanding you understand and there is an element of resistance to change however we have actually always done it that way is no real reason for not looking at the the benefits and the possibilities of moving on and moving into you know what could nearly be figured out to be the next Century or so there is a lot to monitor and this method does position a number of obstacles um so Johnny might you inform us about those obstacles yeah naturally so there’s a range right there is so
I simply did you changed our Business to OS so now we can do our payroll and payments operation on a single platform yes it’s like our CFO got a CFO for their CFO and now that I bulletproof payments to our 10 000 Worldwide workers you are worthy of a corner workplace with a closer parking space due to the fact that I mastered Global payroll and payments with Papaya payroll OS did you Papaya Global Survey
I discover time and time again the workers often misclassified unwittingly they do not understand the conditions of employment or contract and are told by the customer why it’s most advantageous generally to the customer why you need to be employed or participated in this style the worker may owe taxes and Social Security to the authorities the future pension and healthcare benefits of the employee can be impacted and a number of times it can be years before this all falls out and by that time it’s too late years have actually passed they haven’t contributed to pensions Etc so it’s a huge effect that they never ever knew they were strolling into you couldn’t agree with you more if you state the UK for instance hmrc can return as much as ten years um Kathy companies are getting insurance against misclassification but typically premiums are just covering the expense of legal fees whilst the average claim assessed versus companies corresponds to to 40 or 50 percent of the base pay of employee exists any point in getting insurance and what is the alternative yeah to your point um you do need to read the small print it is not covering the taxes charge and interest in many cases I haven’t seen it at least so uh the the other area that I do believe if you managed to get the coverage what we are saying is is that if your compliance program is not up to pack you could be rejected coverage on the basis of the truth that you were not in compliance with laws um in the UK
