Data security matters. Employers have a duty of care and legal responsibility to keep all staff information confidential and secure. No-one wants to think details of their salary, pension, tax, address, sickness record and child care payments may be accessible to unauthorised persons through lax security. Electronic data is constantly vulnerable to misuse and attack. Aside from any embarrassment caused, breaches of data confidentiality can lead to criminal acts like blackmail or identity theft, with disastrous consequences. Anyone administering payroll services understands that the data they handle is especially sensitive and must have the highest protection.
Consequently, some businesses considering payroll outsourcing services hesitate. They worry about security of their employee's data if released to third parties. Every payroll company understands this, and prioritises security. At Dataplan Payroll we do everything to ensure maximum safety. Our employees are closely vetted before appointment.
