Streamlined payroll and reporting processes across all your locations with a single, easy-to-use service built on PwC’s global network of experts.
Keeping your people motivated includes getting payroll right. With a small to medium-sized employee population that’s globally mobile, this poses a unique set of challenges – especially if you’re managing everything from a single location. You need international payroll services standardised enough to run efficiently around the world, but sufficiently nuanced to deal with local complexity. And everything has to be easy to use so your employees and HR staff get the payroll services they need, quickly and reliably.
PwC’s International Payroll gives you a big company reach with a small company feel. We do this by combining the best tools available with the expertise of the world’s leading payroll network – all via an easy-to-use international payroll portal.
We’re there to help you coordinate your local payrolls and make sure you can handle the entire range of payroll, tax and compliance issues associated with an international workforce, including – but not limited to – the following:
We’re the provider to choose if you want consistency in terms of processes, legal compliance and transparent HR costs. Our Global Payroll Portal (GPP) solution, coupled with strong local payroll solutions and the network to address additional issues if necessary, is a real asset that will pay dividends for you.
We coordinate any processing of social security liability in the relevant countries by handling shadow payroll and bringing the right information to the relevant teams in the countries involved.
We coordinate and manage expatriate payroll to ensure international compliance and reduce employment tax risks. Together with our other services around expatriates, this gives you a reliable partner across the board, from strategy to execution.
We analyse your risks and optimisation opportunities, both locally and internationally. Our payroll health check covers local employees as well as cross-border and project workers/business travellers and international assignments – plus other issues important from an employer compliance point of view.
Shadow payroll is often used to manage expatriate payroll compliance. Our services can go much further to cover project workers, business travellers and potential issues relating to tax and social security liability in different countries. Our support ranges from implementing or providing outsourcing services to advising on matters such as immigration, permanent establishment risk and employment law.
What are the relevant factors to ensure compliance when lending staff abroad? Our specialist teams help you minimise exposure wherever possible in the relevant countries.
The power, simplicity and reliability of our International Payroll solution come from a combination of the three key elements below. Rounding off the package is state-of-the-art data analytics and reporting functionality. You have instant, 24/7 access to all standard payroll reports, as well as any bespoke reports you require. You’ll be able to examine consistency and compliance on a regional or global scale, and will have valuable data at your fingertips to support business decision-making.
The Global Payroll Portal (GPP), a technology platform providing a consistent employer and employee experience, workflow, case and performance management functionality, and a central repository of payroll know-how. The GPP can easily incorporate other HR systems and is certified for Workday integration to also enable international payroll.
A centralised project management and coordination team serving as a single point of contact and making sure deliverables and timelines are achieved.
In-house, in-country payroll teams (not subcontractors!) in over 150 countries (the world’s leading payroll network).
We work with our employment tax, global mobility, legal and HR colleagues to provide compliance-centric, technology-driven managed payroll services. Clients and their employees can count on high quality and a consistent payroll experience, regardless of their location in the world.
