Employing staff, especially in the early years of any business, is a delicate balancing act. Depending on which way you see things and your ability to delegate responsibility and effectively spread the workload, staff can either be a costly addition to your business or an essential asset.
At the outset, small companies rarely have enough staff to cover all the work that needs to be done, and the frustrating thing is that taking on more staff can initially increase rather than decrease your workload. Time is also a precious asset which can easily be eaten up by having to manage your employees, provide for their requirements, stay up to date with changing tax and HR legislation and manage payroll and accounting software.
No matter how you look at things, it’s highly likely you’ll need to be an effective multi-tasker while your business finds its feet. However there are ways to make the best use of your precious time, such as outsourcing your HR and payroll requirements to a specialist company.
Payroll companies are dedicated providers of a complex service which otherwise would have to be kept accurate and up to date by yourself or one of your employees, diverting your resources and time away from the main tasks of your business. Many small businesses don’t consider payroll solutions because they mistakenly assume they’re designed for larger corporations, and will therefore be ineffective and overly expensive for a small number of employees. However, at Moorepay we specialise in services for small to medium enterprises, meaning we understand your needs and will create a tailored solution to fit the size of both your company and your budget.
In fact, the costs incurred pay for themselves in terms of time saved, and you’ll be left with enough energy to recognise your employees for the assets they are.
