Mayday Payroll

Organisations today are continually faced with new challenges as they go through structural and staff changes that can extend beyond just payroll accounting. In many companies, bottleneck situations in this area are becoming increasingly common – with far-reaching consequences. 

Missing and inaccurate pay slips and certificates to authorities can negatively affect employee trust and satisfaction, which can lead to reputational damage on the job market.

Failure to meet deadlines vis-à-vis the financial authorities or creditors could result in penalties or periodic penalty payments by administrative bodies.

Incomplete or incorrect data for cross-disciplinary and cross-tax purposes, e.g. transmission of legally required statistical surveys or consideration of facts for other types of tax, such as VAT or electricity tax.

To prevent  bottlenecks in the payroll department having  negative consequences, swift action is required. Our Mayday Payroll team provides timely support in such situations. To do this, we combine interdisciplinary expertise – from data analysis and payroll to labour law*, criminal law*, and social security – to understand your data structures and efficiently prepare them for time-critical payroll accounting. Our team can quickly take over any pending tasks, thus providing much-needed relief for your team so that they can focus on other critical priorities. By allowing your HR department to focus on its core tasks, experience shows that this can lead to improved employee satisfaction levels.
