Strategic HR: How talent technology is revolutionising the game
The way we work has changed dramatically and continues to evolve. With increased workforce flexibility, mobilisation and focus on employee experience, HR must embrace digital transformation. Talent technology is ‘revolutionising the game’ by automating and optimising processes throughout the employee lifecycle. Cloud-hosted software reduces CapEx, overheads, human error and ensures compliance. Data is at the heart of strategic HR, enabling talent development aligned to business objectives, and helping employees be the best version of themselves.
Celebrating one year of Payroll Question Time
It’s always important to keep your finger on the pulse when it comes to payroll. Since its creation in April 2020, SD Worx’s monthly live Q&A webinars – known as ‘Payroll Question Time’ – have helped thousands of Payroll, HR and finance professionals get the answers they need to help their business perform and keep Britain paid.
Why digital maturity is integral to the employee experience
The COVID-19 pandemic has increased the urgency almost overnight for digital people solutions. HR professionals and business leaders have been forced to rethink their employee experience strategies according to new touchpoints in the ‘never normal’ workplace.
Why HR analytics holds the key to evidence-based decision-making across the business
Payroll & HR are the guardians of rich employee data. Successful organisations understand that access to this people data – presented as a single source of truth – facilitates evidence-based decision-making and stronger outcomes. It builds organisational resilience for the ‘never normal’ we are facing, optimising processes and managing risk whilst identifying viable initiatives. It also builds trust and transparency at all levels of seniority.
Why automated travel and expense management is one of the most profitable process optimisations
Traditional travel & expense management (T&E) is admin-heavy, time-consuming and vulnerable to errors, making it obsolete in the modern workplace. Forward-thinking companies are already automating the process in line with digital transformation goals. A leading software and technology solution not only empowers employees, including Payroll & HR teams, but can pay for itself in a matter of months through the insight and cost savings achieved.
How payroll influences the entire employee lifecycle
The notion of the siloed back office payroll team is severely outdated. Elevating to centre stage in recent years, payroll extends way beyond salaries and taxes, providing every business area with rich insight. It is key to digital transformation and creating a positive experience for your greatest asset – your people.
In this blog, we outline how payroll influences the entire employee lifecycle and how a strategic approach can be the driver for change in your business or organisation.
Post-pandemic HR: Mastering remote workforce management (WFM)
Recent economic uncertainty has caused thousands of job losses and exposed some people to non-standard work models for the first time. These unprecedented changes now show signs of becoming long-term. Organisations are also suffering from a shortage of specialist skills – especially digital – opting to borrow contingent workers, build existing talent as well as buy (hiring permanent workers) to create the desired mix. Across Europe, about 1 in 5 employees is a contingent worker and this is expected to rise.
Show your employees what they really earn
You like to reward your employees for their hard work, day in, day out. Most companies currently do this with a varied pay package featuring many interesting extras. Employers make serious financial efforts to be able to offer competitive salaries and all sorts of benefits. Often, these packages are so extensive that it's not always easy to understand them properly. Many employees don't really know what their company is paying out, from company cars to pension savings on top of salaries. You may make all these efforts, but if your employees take it for granted or aren't even aware of it, they won't have the opportunity to gain an extra dose of motivation or engagement.
