Outsourcing payroll services in the UK is on the rise, with 41% of business owners with turnovers above £5 million planning to outsource payroll and tax functions this year, according to a recent study.
This significant increase from the existing cohort, believed to be less than 9%, reflects a shift driven by cost pressures, skills shortages, and the growing need for operational efficiency, particularly in fast-expanding industries like technology.
Why Outsourced Payroll is on the Rise
- Cost Efficiency: Outsourcing eliminates the expenses of in-house payroll teams and software, enabling businesses to focus on strategic growth.
- Skills Shortages: With difficulties recruiting skilled payroll staff, outsourcing provides access to experienced professionals without recruitment challenges.
- Technological Transformation: Modern payroll providers, like Qualitas, use automation and cloud-based platforms to improve accuracy and efficiency, giving businesses a competitive edge.
- Short and long-term planning: Businesses don’t have to worry about scheduling issues like annual leave cover, staff absences and long and expensive recruitment processes.
