Payroll

Whether paid directly by PSI Global, an employment intermediary, payment intermediary, or your own personal service company, we will ensure that you are paid the right way, taking into account all relevant legislation. We operate on a basis of the right worker in the right payment box. This ensures that all clients and workers are protected from any unforeseen risk. We do not allow payments to offshore or onshore schemes that are set up to evade taxation in any jurisdiction.

How You’re Paid

We offer several pay avenues for our workers, including Umbrella PAYE, Umbrella CIS, Personal Service Company, and Direct PAYE. We have four UK based payroll providers that we work closely with for our workers, and four who are able to provide payroll options for those working in Ireland and the EU. We know what to expect from these companies and know we can trust them to provide the best payroll service possible.

Once you start on site with us, one of our payroll partner companies will be in touch with you to do an assessment over the phone. This will ultimately decide how you will be paid, including self-employed or not. Our payroll partners operate in line with the laws set out by the government, and the questionnaires are designed to cover the payroll company, PSI Global, and our clients. Your details are submitted the day you start, and the payroll company will aim to contact you as soon as possible to go through set up and complete SDC assessments where necessary.

For our workers that require PAYE payment, your account manager will send you an e-sign pack and are available to provide you with support completing the forms if necessary. The forms will then be processed to ensure you are set up for payment.

Additionally, as a PAYE worker, you will be set up in the pension scheme. We work with the pension provider NEST, who will be provided with your details following your first payroll being run. Finally, as a PAYE worker you are also entitled to holiday accrual, which is 12.07% of your top line for the week, allowing you to take time off and still get paid. This amount is not deducted from your pay but is a separate accrual.

If you are being paid through your own limited company (PSC), there are a number of documents we will need from you in order to set you up, as well as a satisfactory IR35 determination by the client. During your time on site, you will need to submit an invoice that matches your timesheet each week in order to be paid.

Payroll Support

Our workers are always paid on time and receive relevant payments in advance. Employment and Taxation Compliance support is always provided, including off-payroll process. We provide access to in-country expertise from our payroll partners, worker benefits for all, and tax assistance when needed.
