PAYROLL ADMINISTRATION SERVICES
Payroll. It's a once-a-month pain in the neck that few company managers really want to have responsibility for. Yet it's absolutely vital that you get
it right – first time, every time.
Mess up your payroll - just once - and you've got disgruntled employees lining up outside your office, SARS penalty notices and fines… and still more
paperwork.
It's bad for your business reputation, bad for staff morale and skills retention – and errodes of your bottom line.
That's why more and more South African SMME's have teamed up with
SHRS.

How to get rid of your monthly payroll headaches?
We'll act as your in-house payroll manager - for the three or four days of each month that you really need one. That means you don't have to carry
unnecessary headcount for the rest of the month – or delegate this vital function to someone in-house who doesn’t have the necessary expertise.
If not, you could be just one payroll away from incurring SARS interest and penalty charges that are bigger than our annual fees!
Because we work closely with so many companies like yours, we're able to spread the set-up, maintenance and other costs across a number of business
users. It's a bit like having a software 'site licence'. You benefit from the same Payroll economies of scale that larger companies have always taken
for granted.
My team and I have all the latest payroll administration software, the most up-to-date training, established systems & procedures. So there's no need for you to replicate all this structure in-house.
There are so many commercial advantages to you:
- precision and accuracy in processing your payroll
- huge cost savings (our annual fee may be less than the monthly cost to you of one person processing your payroll)
- avoidance of payroll fraud
- immediate compliance with the latest legislation
- the responsibility of remaining constantly up to date with the latest legislation lies with us
- providing time and resources for you to focus on the core function of your business
- timely provision of professional payslips for your staff
- detailed reports to assist with financial reporting

- expert knowledge and advice on issues relating to your payroll
Best of all, all year-round peace of mind that comes from knowing that all this is taken care of. So you can get on with running and growing your
