-  Research shows 64% of Irish companies say technology helped with their preparation, management, and distribution of payroll

-  Tech is streamlining data collection and making processes more efficient

DUBLINworkf, Dec. 4, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The way Irish companies manage payroll is changing, with many turning to technology to find ways of reducing the number of payroll issues they encounter. Nearly 7 in 10 (68.6%) companies say available technologies is making data collection easier, streamlining processes for businesses.

This is according to new research from SD Worx, the leading European HR and people solutions provider. For its 2023 Payroll Proficiency Index, SD Worx surveyed 4,500 companies of all sizes who are active in the most diverse sectors, spread over sixteen countries in Europe: Belgium, Denmark, Germany, Finland, France, Ireland, Italy, Croatia, the Netherlands, Norway, Austria, Poland, Spain, United Kingdom, Sweden, and Switzerland.

The index offers critical insight into payroll performance across the continent, with respondents giving themselves a personal score out of 100 across six core areas of payroll. The index helps to identify some of the biggest challenges facing payroll professionals today.

Payroll Proficiency Index Highlights:

Technology Advancement: Technology is helping erase errors, reducing the number of payroll issues encountered. For example, 68.6% of Irish companies surveyed for the SD Worx Payroll Proficiency report say available technologies make data collection easier. Luckily, payroll software has developed in such a way that it can take over complex payroll processes; 64% of Ireland-based respondents surveyed said technology helped with their preparation, management, and distribution of payroll. This, in turn, removes manual input and leads to fewer mistakes and more data driven insights.

Combining Systems: There is a clear trend for companies in Ireland to combine through integration internal and external systems and technology in their payroll process. For instance, 64.7% of companies surveyed for the Payroll Proficiency Index stated that available technologies and systems make payroll processing easier.

Payroll Outsourcing: Over half (55%) of companies stated that cooperation with an external payroll service provider makes payroll processing easier. The report found that outsourcing payroll to an external provider boasted a range of benefits for companies, particularly when it came to costs. Furthermore, 65.9% of companies found that outsourcing their payroll made data collection and access to/integration with data sources easier.

Eimear Byrne, Ireland Country Lead at SD Worx, comments: "In alignment with the ever-evolving technological landscape, this Index explores the integration of advanced technologies in payroll processes. From automation to artificial intelligence, we've evaluated how technology is reshaping the payroll landscape and influencing efficiency and accuracy in Ireland and the rest of Europe.

We're encouraging all organisations, HR professionals, and payroll practitioners to explore the Payroll Proficiency Index 2023 and leverage its insights to drive excellence in their own payroll operations."

 The index is now available for download on the SD Worx, formerly Intelligo, website.
