Payroll
We offer payroll services ranging from annual IRP5 submissions up to full payroll services, including pay calculations,
payslips and the issuing of IRP5’s for your employees.
IRP5 submissions
SARS IRP5 calculations, submissions and reconciliations can prove a taxing task, if you’ll pardon the pun. Attempting this on your own, not only takes up too much of your precious time, but can also result in all sorts of tax-related complications that your business can do without.

Deduct the correct amount of tax from employees
Pay those amounts over to SARS monthly
Reconcile deductions and payments, and
Issue tax certificates to employees.
The Shared Services Company can complete this job professionally for your company, through:
