Essex Company Short-listed for Nationwide Payroll Services Award

eSlip Payroll Services Payslip of the Year Award1 Essex Company Short listed for Nationwide Payroll Services AwardeSlip Payroll Services Payslips are crammed with information that  saves our clients time and reduce the number of employee queries. This frees up time of employees within the HR function making them more efficient.

The payroll services industry have recognised eSlip innovative design by shortlisting us for the Payroll World Awards “Payslip of the Year”

Our payslips have evolved and over the years we have consulted with our many and diverse clients. We have incorporated on the payslips many different design features which can be company and even individually tailored.

Today eSlip payslips are:-
• A means of helping to reduce the time that our clients spend handling pay queries from their employees, by providing information to help resolve employee’s questions before they pick up the telephone or walk into the pay office.
• A very effective means of communicating with all employees on a variety of different topics.
We have designed our payslip in a way that directly enables us to address these two issues, and below are a number of examples of this in practice.

According to our clients the most common query they had to deal with was “why has my tax code changed?” Only the employee can query this with their tax office. Initially we included the individual’s tax office contact number on the payslip; but with the HMRC change to a single contact point, we now include this contact number on the payslip together with the employer’s tax reference number. The employee thus has the information to make the enquiry without contacting his payroll department.

At the bottom left of the payslip, we include a summary of all the Statutory information for that pay period, together with running totals for the Tax Year to date. This area of the payslip can also be used by the employer to show the monetary value of other benefits such at their pension contribution to the employees’ pension.

On the front of the payslip the company name, is followed by a department code (on which the payslips can be sorted if required for the client).

We then have a delivery code which is the primary sort field that tells the despatch department where to send the payslip and by what distribution method. For example to head office by Royal Mail or by special delivery or to a Home Address by standard 2nd class mail (eg. HA2S).

We also have a sequence number and pay period number which allows the payslip bundle to be checked for completeness, and also makes it easy to reprint any payslips that fail quality control.

On the address panel, there are two markers at the corners of the box (not shown on PDF versions).  These enable the finishing team to check the alignment of the payslip without affecting the security seal.  Alignment is adjustable easily at run time by the payslip program, to cope with variations in alignment between payslip batches.  There are many more features of our payslip which we will cover in more detail later.

By attention to all these individually small details we have substantially enchanced our client experience, saving them time and money.

We are delighted to have our attention to detail acknowledged with this nomination and look forward to the awards.
