Payroll, CIS & pensions
A clearer routine for paying your team.
Practical support with payroll, Construction Industry Scheme administration and workplace pension records.
Clear work. Practical explanations.
Paying employees and subcontractors involves more than producing a payment figure. Changes to staff details, hours, pay, deductions and pension information need to reach the right place at the right time, while employee payroll and CIS administration follow different processes.
Taxwell helps employers and construction businesses establish a reliable information-sharing routine. We agree the payroll runs, CIS work and pension administration you need, including cut-off dates, approvals and the responsibilities that remain with your business.
What the service can cover
Employee payroll
Process the payroll work included in your engagement using the information you supply. This can cover agreed pay calculations, payslips and payroll reporting, with a clear process for starters, leavers and changes that need review.
CIS records and returns
Support the agreed administration for subcontractor payments, deductions and CIS returns. We discuss verification information and supporting records so responsibilities for rates, approvals, statements and submissions are understood.
Workplace pension administration
Coordinate agreed pension-related payroll records and contribution information with your existing arrangements. We clarify who handles employee communications, scheme submissions and other employer actions as part of the engagement.
Good payroll starts with a clear handover.
Late or incomplete information makes a payroll run harder to review. We agree when changes should be sent, who approves the figures and how questions are resolved before the pay run is finalised. The same approach helps keep CIS and pension records organised without treating employees and subcontractors as interchangeable.
What we need to get started
- Your PAYE and existing payroll setup, with prior pay information where relevant
- Employee starter, leaver, pay and hours information
- Subcontractor details, verification information and payment records for CIS work
- Workplace pension scheme details and current contribution arrangements
A straightforward way to work together
- Understand your requirements. We discuss your circumstances, existing records and the support you are looking for.
- Confirm the scope and fee. You know which services are included, who is responsible for each step and what information is needed.
- Agree the next steps. We set a practical process for sharing records, resolving queries and reviewing the work with you.
Before we get started
Can you support payroll and CIS for the same business?
Yes. We can agree support for both, with the information and responsibilities for each clearly separated. Your business should raise any uncertainty about employment status before processing payments.
Do your online calculators replace a payroll service?
No. The payroll and CIS calculators provide estimates using the assumptions shown. Actual payroll, returns and pension administration depend on complete records, the relevant settings and an agreed service process.
How do I request a quote for this service?
Use the quote-request page or arrange a conversation with Taxwell. Tell us about your business or personal circumstances and the support needed. We review the requirements and confirm the work and fee before the engagement begins.
