The New Payroll Efficiency Report … KPIs, Performance, Global Benchmarking

Testimonials

See what people are saying

"The GPA team are very helpful, professional and welcoming. This really made the UK Payroll Summit very enjoyable as well as being extremely informative. The setting for the venue was well-chosen for getting there and the meetings were well-organised and structured. There was something for everyone concerned with the complexities and issues in payroll both in the UK and globally, thank you GPA!"

" The trainer delivered an excellent training course which really helped prepare for the implementation of a new provider. He is passionate about his area of expertise and takes time to clearly explain the relevant aspects of payroll in a simple yet effective manner. He was happy to talk in detail at an individual level during breaks, as well as make reference to specific questions within the group for knowledge share where it was relevant. I would highly recommend the Global Payroll Association to anyone involved in payroll "

"Since becoming a corporate member, our interaction with the GPA has increased dramatically. The range of services from country specific training to a fantastic new app have all been well received by my team with content delivered by experts. Would highly recommend membership to any organisation. "
"I’ve been a member of the GPA since it started. I find it really useful to have an organisation that really does have contacts around the Globe. The fact cards for each country are also really useful and it’s my starting point if I need to find any International information."
"The GPA is always professional and I would definitely recommend you to other colleagues within my profession"
