Best HR Tech – Payroll Solution (Gold)

The Ceridian team received the Gold Award for Best HR Tech – Payroll Solution at the HRM Asia Readers’ Choice Awards 2022.

“In today’s borderless, fast-changing world, the pressure to remain an efficient and cost-effective business is more challenging than ever. To thrive, organisations need to embrace modern solutions that enable smarter decision-making at the entry level,” said Rob Squires, VP and Head of Sales, Asia and Japan, Ceridian.

As technology continues to be utilised for routine and repetitive tasks, Squires foresees the role of the payroll professional to evolve as a result. He explained, “Ceridian’s Future of Payroll Survey suggests payroll professionals are ready for this change. 78% of respondents said if their job duties were to change as payroll technology becomes more sophisticated, they would want to adapt to their new job duties and stay in their current role.”

“Now is the time to help empower payroll professionals to embrace a strategic role within their organisation. In doing so, payroll professionals will become significant drivers of value, efficiency, and transformation for their organisations.”

Furthermore, the survey found that the biggest pain points identified by payroll professionals were compliance challenges (43%), the complexity of managing multi-jurisdictional payroll (34%), and inefficient processes (27%).

“As payroll professionals move into a more strategic role, understanding how pay impacts the broader business environment is key,” he added. “With Ceridian Dayforce, organisations have the best-in-class technology to modernise their payroll systems and methods. This, in turn, helps payroll professionals reach their potential as strategic business partners for their organisations.”

Squires was speaking as Ceridian was presented with the Gold Award for Best HR Tech – Payroll Solution for the second consecutive year. Ceridian offers Dayforce, a payroll solution designed to revolutionise the payroll experience with its continuous calculation model for pay, time, and benefits. By using continuous calculation, employees’ information that is entered into one place is instantly shared and accessible across the entire application. This reduces the possibility of costly or time-consuming payroll errors while simplifying compliance.

He concluded, “As we work toward the future, Ceridian is laser-focused on finding new ways to help organisations navigate change while providing them with innovative solutions that create competitive advantages in a digital-first world of work.”

“On behalf of our entire team at Ceridian, I would like to extend a heartful thank you to the voters and judging panel at HRM Magazine Asia for recognising us as the 2022 Gold Winner in the Best HR Tech – Payroll Solution category.
