Payroll

Payroll isn’t the first thing businesses think about—until it goes wrong. Whether it’s late payments, compliance issues, or inefficient manual processes, payroll problems can quickly cause chaos and cost.

That’s why choosing the right payroll provider is one of the most important (but often overlooked) business decisions a company has to make.

Payroll is often seen as a back-office function—just another process that happens behind the scenes. In reality, payroll professionals are the backbone of every organisation. Without them, businesses would struggle to pay employees accurately, stay compliant with legislation, and maintain trust.

So why is payroll so often overlooked? And how can we start giving payroll professionals the recognition they deserve?

The best payroll systems are the ones you never have to worry about. They work behind the scenes, ensuring employees get paid on time, compliance risks are minimised, and businesses avoid costly mistakes. 

At SD Worx, we believe in building strong partnerships with our clients to shape the future of work together. We recently brought that vision to life at The Future of Worx, an exclusive customer event hosted at the Embassy of Belgium in London. 

Although for many the 1st January is the start of the new tax year, for the UK it is not. However, the tradition of New Year’s Resolutions is something to think about. Where traditionally resolutions are about stopping smoking, exercising more or giving another excess up, there are some areas that the UK Payroll Professional may want to start considering.

As the new year approaches, payroll and HR professionals must stay informed about changes in tax, National Insurance, statutory payments, minimum wage, pension auto-enrolment, student loans, and more.

This webinar offers an in-depth overview of the latest updates from the UK and devolved governments, detailing how these will impact employee pay and organisational compliance.

Gain the knowledge you need to confidently navigate 2025's regulatory landscape, ensuring your payroll and reward strategies align with the new standards.
