# National Payroll Week 2026

National Payroll Week is 7th to 11th September and gives us an opportunity to thank our staff for all their hard work and recognise the important role of payroll. There will be cake!
It can be easy to forget what happens in the background to make sure that payroll runs smoothly. Here are a few details of how we spend our days…
The payroll team’s main aim is to ensure that employees are paid:
- Accurately
- Correctly
- On time
- In line with legislation
We ensure that employers are fulfilling their legal duties and employees are paid their hard-earned wages. Everyone want to be paid the right amount, at the right time, and we do our best to do just that.
Our team run payrolls for thousands of clients, and that entails:
In addition to running payrolls, we also:
- Liaise with funding bodies and support services
- Provide reporting for local authorities and attend service user group meetings
- Engage with other direct payment support services
- Keep up to date with issues affecting direct payments
- Attend Forums and give presentations
- Sponsor and attend several disability groups
- Proving good boss training across many local authorities
- Proving support on the telephone 8.30 to 5pm Monday to Friday
- Have a live chat service online during our standard office hours
- Sending monthly NewsLink updates
- Providing monthly blogs on topics that may affect our clients
- Sending out the text reminder services
The team focus on engaging with client by:
*And so much more*
It is therefore important that during national payroll week we take the time to celebrate the amazing work and commitment the payroll team put into making sure that thousands of clients payrolls are processed every month.
What a fantastic job they all do.
