Payroll services to power your business

ADP payroll services FAQs

What is payroll and how does it work?

Payroll can be anything from paying your employees and calculating MPF and other mandatory contributions, to ensuring compliance obligations are met. Payroll can either be carried out in-house or entrusted to a reputable provider like ADP. If you decide to outsource your payroll, your payroll provider should be able to manage every payroll process your business encounters. This enables you to focus on higher-value tasks, including business strategy, hiring and retaining the right people, and driving employee development and engagement.

What do payroll services do?

Payroll providers carry out a range of services for companies who don’t wish to run an in-house payroll. These can include generating local statutory reports such as IR56 B/E/F/G and monthly MPF filing forms, as well as providing money movement services.

At ADP, we do all these, and more. We provide customised payroll services and payroll outsourcing for businesses of all sizes. Our payroll system keeps your business compliant to regulations in Hong Kong and other global markets, helping you avoid fines and penalties.

What are payroll managed services?

If you choose as a business to hand over every payroll process to a trusted outsourced provider like ADP, these are known as payroll managed services. This ensures your HR, finance and admin teams are freed up from time-consuming work. Now you can stay compliant with regulations in Hong Kong and other global markets.
