FAQs

Your small business questions, answered.

How do small businesses manage payroll?

If you’re a small business, managing payroll is probably one of your least favourite activities. It can be complex, time-consuming, prone to manual errors – not to mention keeping up with compliance regulations. The smart, cost-effective choice is to outsource your payroll to a trusted provider who’ll run your payroll accurately and ensure you meet your compliance obligations. Leaving you time to focus on running your business.

How does payroll work for a small business?

A small business needs flexibility to adapt as it grows. A payroll solution helps your business adapt as you pay per employee, per month. At ADP we offer payroll outsourcing services where you fully outsource your payroll to us. We ensure that your people are paid accurately and on time, while protecting your business from liabilities. Your employees can then view their payslips and manage leave anytime, anywhere via our secure cloud payroll portal software.

Outsourcing your payroll to a provider like ADP can save your small company valuable time and money – both in short supply when wearing multiple business hats.

This way, you save time managing your payroll and keeping up with regulation changes.
