What people say about ADP global payroll
Payroll is so special because payroll is always local, there are no global set rules. This is one of the core areas a provider needs to deliver on and where you have to be adaptable to constantly changing local legislation. Not a lot of players in the market can then deliver on top of that, pan-country standardisations, data processes and systems, and governance — and that’s the added value of ADP.

With ADP’s Global Payroll I can now check which country’s payroll is on time and if any have missed their cut off dates, so I don’t have to request information from different payroll teams. We now have international ownership and one system to gather information with all data in the same format. And in addition, the standardised systems allow us to apply a set of standardised controls as well.
