Payroll 101: What is it and how can Alliance Combined Services help? 

Ever wondered what payroll actually means and why it’s such a big deal? Let’s break it down in simple terms! 

What is Payroll? 

Think of payroll as the backbone of any business. It’s the process of calculating and distributing pay to employees, including deductions for things like taxes, national insurance, pensions, and more. At its core, payroll ensures that everyone gets paid correctly and on time—sounds pretty crucial, right? 

But it’s not just about writing a cheque or hitting “send” on a payment. Payroll is a complex, regulated process that involves everything from understanding various tax codes to keeping up with ever-changing legislation like IR35 and AWR (Agency Worker Regulations). It’s like being the unsung hero of every workplace, ensuring the lights stay on and everyone’s happy!
