Payroll is repetitive, deadline-driven and unforgiving of mistakes — which is exactly why it eats time. Most of that time goes on gathering information rather than the calculation itself.
Reduce the admin first
- Fix a cut-off date each period for hours, overtime and expenses
- Keep employee records in one place, updated as changes happen
- Use a consistent format for timesheets
- Batch starters and leavers paperwork instead of handling it ad hoc
Then decide what to hand over
Once the inputs are tidy, processing, payslips and submissions can be handled externally with very little of your involvement. AEO manages payroll end to end for Gibraltar businesses, including payslips and statutory submissions.
