Novative attended and hosted a virtual booth at the GPA Virtual Summit which took place on Wednesday 23rd June.

The half day event offered sessions, panels and networking for the payroll industry. The sessions ranged from Global Payroll and remote workers.

We had a great experience hosting our booth and really enjoyed the virtual ’round tables’. Thank you to everyone that took the time to visit our booth and chat to us at the tables.

The sessions were super interesting. ‘Is Global Payroll set-up to impact the bigger business picture’ was very informative. The session had some really revealing facts and polls. One poll revealed that a whopping 71% of companies still use Excel with payroll processing and data analytics. When the host asked if the attendees were surprised by this, most answered ‘sadly no’. Conversation changed to why this might be. Many agreed that the end-user in Excel was comfortable with it. Also, before the modern technologies in cloud computing, it was very time-consuming and risky to implement a big software. Even though there is much lower risk now.

Another interested poll revealed that 46% of companies thought it was important to have one single vendor deliver their Global payroll. This makes sense, as having one point of contact and one company of processes to deal with saves time and money.

What Novative Came Away With

It was a great opportunity for us to speak with like-minded people in the industry and see how our services could fit their needs. The sessions and polls highlighted that our services are fixing the challenges that most companies face with our cloud-based software and our Global outsourcing services.

Hopefully next time we will meet in person! Either way, we are looking forward to the next, either in person or virtually.

Last week, we exhibited at the GPA UK Payroll Summit 2020. Topics that were concentrated on included challenges facing employers in 2020 and onwards.

The event was held on the cusp of the COVID-19 being named a world pandemic. Mel and the team did a great job of providing hand sanitiser and filmed all the sessions, for those who did not attend.

Payroll Topics 2020

There were some brilliant topics at the event, Payroll Technology, HR and Payroll working together more closely, Expat Challenges and Global Payroll Challenges. Of course, the COVID-19 topic came up and a panel was put together to talk about COVID-19 and payroll at the end of the day.

Global Payroll Leadership

Graham Jenkins from The Consultant Connection Limited, talk on ‘Global Payroll Leadership’ was very interesting. Graham pointed out that if you were a lead in Global payroll the burden of risk management was on you to get right. He stated you needed a fundamental set of rules, standards and strategy and always be audit-ready. He continued to say that you couldn’t personally know each country fiscal rules, but you should have strong rules and regulations across the board to keep things compliant. These standards need to be championed by you as a leader.

Define Your Global Payroll Strategy

Graham then said you needed to define your Global Payroll Strategy. If you were creating a new strategy it was important to define why. Is it to save money through outsourcing etc.

Another interesting point he raised about the Payroll strategy was the need to involved HR. HR now holds data that payroll needs; therefore, it cannot just be payroll you need both. It will be a poor payroll strategy if you do not include HR.

Outsourcing Your Payroll

When choosing to outsource your payroll you need to define why – Jenkins continued. Is it to save money, or to streamline processes? He stated there was a clear difference with solutions. Were you looking for a technology partner? Or a payroll partner? He warned there was a clear difference and many people did not realize this when choosing a partner. Technology partners will literally supply you the software and that is it. Payroll partners will keep your payroll compliant in each country. He stated you could not expect outsourcing partners to deal with internal standards, that was up to you. Knowing your payroll issues is key to a good partnership, you need to be aware of them all, and then feed them back to your payroll outsourcing partner so there is no nasty surprises for anyone. Clear honest communication is key to a good partnership.

In Conclusion

Graham Jenkins made some key points for both creating a Global Payroll Strategy and choosing a Global Payroll Partner. At Novative we offer both HR and Payroll software which has been crafted by our HR and Payroll experts and our own developers. We also have offices throughout the world offering you first-class in-country payroll. We really believe in offering our payroll partners the best possible service.
