Course overview
Payroll is the process an organisation can least afford to get wrong, and the one most often learned by improvisation. This programme teaches it properly: how gross pay is built, what is deducted and why, how a payslip is constructed and read, and how a payroll run is controlled from cut-off to payment. Learners work with actual payroll reports and payslips throughout rather than abstract examples.
Who this course is for
- Payroll administrators and assistants
- HR staff who run or check payroll
- Accountants taking on payroll responsibility
