Compensation & Payroll

As more organisations expand their businesses, a number of payroll business process outsourcing (BPO) and payroll software vendors have steadily increased the number of countries supported on their platforms. Others have focused on developing partner networks to supplement their platform capabilities, and have built middleware to feed and receive data from these partners. Yet some others do not have core payroll processing platforms, but integrate a partner network using their services, middleware and database to show consolidated payroll results. With the increasing geographic expansion of companies, globalization and standardization of payroll processes, there is an increased demand for companywide multinational data analysis with the need to ensure compliance across business units and geographies.

HUMANIST® HCM Suite’s redesigned compensation management and payroll modules keep compensation and payroll data in a single secure database while at the same time adhering to individual countries’ changing legislative requirements. All of this with minimum programming effort. HR teams can report their global organisation’s payroll data using a single repository of data no matter where their employees work.

HUMANIST’s new global payroll system enables any country’s payroll system to be easily and quickly implemented as all the monetary transactions are kept in the same database system no matter how complex the payroll system is.

With HUMANIST, it is also possible to assign permissions to outsourced payroll vendors, providing secured access to work with the organisation’s central database data, while at the same time allowing employees to view their payrolls and benefits data using the HR services delivery portal. This prevents unnecessary and insecure transfer of data in and out of the organisation's systems.

Compensation Systems Management

All of the necessary compensation system definitions such as grading levels, job roles, job groups, job evaluation factors are entered and maintained in this module

In the Compensation Systems Management, an authorised HR staff inputs budget limits, competency groups and compensation system definitions. Based on these inputs, line managers can view the expected salary increase levels for their teams and make decisions on individual salary increase percentages for salary cycles.
