Service Area 04
Payroll, Personnel Records and Social Security
Payroll is the process least open to delay, error or guesswork. We run the whole flow with a single team, from calculation and filings to personnel files and incentives.
One contact, a full team
You get a lead specialist and a named backup for this area; other specialists step in from the team when needed.
Our Approach
Payroll is the process least open to delay, error or guesswork.
Payroll carries the most sensitive information in a company. It is also the process with the least room for delay: payday cannot be postponed and statutory filing deadlines cannot be extended.
We therefore run payroll as a separate discipline, with restricted access and a second-person review. That limits how far salary information travels inside your company, while making sure incentives and reductions are not missed.
Confidentiality
Access to payroll data is defined and limited, and less salary information moves around inside the company.
Closing on time
The payroll and filing calendar is fixed, which removes the last-minute scramble.
No missed incentives
Eligibility is checked on a regular cycle and the advantages are applied systematically.
What We Usually See
This is where companies usually need this service
Salary information circulates internally
Where payroll is kept in-house, confidentiality is usually left to personal trust rather than to process.
Incentives go unused
Companies pay unnecessary cost every month because SGK (the Turkish social security institution) incentives they qualify for go unnoticed.
Personnel files are incomplete
In an inspection or a dispute, missing documents work against the company.
