How do you prioritise your time and resources? Could parts of your HR function be managed more efficiently and effectively elsewhere, allowing you to focus on core capabilities that drive value for your business?
Our Execution Managed Services (EMS) allow you to deliver quickly while driving improvements. We bring our advisory lens and the skills you need from across PwC to design, transform and execute the services you need. Working together, we make your organisation stronger for the long term, so you achieve results that make the difference.
How we can help
A growing number of critical workforce challenges are putting pressure on business leaders to think and act differently – to re-design operating models, squeeze greater value from technology investments, and find further back office efficiencies.
Organisations are looking to engage with a trusted partner to run their HR services – releasing HR leaders to focus on driving strategic value and tackle critical problems.
We provide three connected services:
- Employee Lifecycle - end-to-end employee lifecycle strategic, transactional and query support, from hire to retire. This is tech-enabled using our alliance partnerships, or otherwise integrating with and optimising your existing technology platforms.
- Application Managed Services - specialist operational management and governance of HR SaaS solutions, including driving continuous improvement
- Payroll - specialist payroll operational management
We provide a global managed payroll service to over 160 countries. Our local payroll teams prepare and process payroll, prepare and submit filings with relevant tax and social authorities, respond to payroll queries and collaborate with our tax, HR and legal specialists to provide expert advice and support.
We bring our deep payroll expertise, highlighting any major changes in legislation affecting your payroll. We design, develop and implement appropriate processes and controls to ensure you remain compliant.
Our purpose-built, proprietary payroll technology provides a real-time view of payroll workflow across all countries and delivers consistency across payroll outputs. It is integration-ready via SFTP or API – with HCM systems such as Workday, Success Factors, Oracle, Dayforce as well as other systems including Finance, Banking, Expense, Benefits and Time & Attendance.
We are a Workday Global Payroll Partner and can integrate with Workday bi-directionally.
We also provide payroll consulting services, where we will assess your payroll model, systems, processes and controls. We determine where potential weaknesses may exist for remediation or help design your payroll operating model or case for change. Our emergency specialist support is available to help you deal with resource challenges such as capability or capacity.
It has never been more important to ensure effective HR processes and robustly manage staff misconduct.
The need to promote psychological safety and inclusive workplaces is coupled with increased reporting requirements, including those arising under the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive. Senior leadership and external focus on staff misconduct makes the management of workforce risk a priority.
Our expert HR investigations and audit services support you comprehensively on the management of risky and sensitive staff matters, ensuring independent and compliant processes. We combine specialist employment lawyers, dedicated operational support and customised data extraction / analytics tools.
PwC offers a dedicated HR Legal Helpline through its HR Support service which includes access to specialist employment lawyers, providing advice on any employment issue and bespoke documentation. You also get access to an online HR Hub with template letters, FAQs, scripts etc. for your HR needs.
Additionally our global network provides unparalleled access to a breadth of skills and knowledge across multiple jurisdictions, enabling seamless cross-border advice and support.
With the help of our innovative technology, we offer data remediation services that can transform your data into a reliable and accurate single source of truth. Find out how we have done this for pensions data and how our expertise can benefit other HR areas as well.
Data is at the heart of your pensions strategy and commercial goals for your pension arrangements. We understand how important it is to get it right. Our complementary and independent pensions data offering for trustees, sponsoring employers and insurance companies provides expert support, working with our specialist data team.
Using our specialist on-shore operational data teams, together with our pensions consulting expertise, we are able to rapidly deploy a team to support you on data and procedural tasks. We can analyse and clean your data, using proprietary technology, to allow you to have confidence in your decision-making.
We have supported some of the largest third party pension administrators via secondments into their back office. We deploy a flexible workforce that can be regularly adjusted according to need. Additionally, the team can train your staff to take this activity back in the future.
Examples of how we can support are set out below:
- Data analysis using Data:PASS to show comprehensive data dashboard
- Data cleansing
- Process optimisation
- GMP rectification and equalisation
- Contact centre
