Remote transforms how businesses pay international employees

While companies may be vying to get us back into the office – no amount of ping pong tables will replace the ability to have an extra 30 minutes sleep, thank you very much – it really has never been easier to work remotely.

In many industries and roles, if you have access to a computer and the internet, then you can probably do your job. However, getting paid when you’re working in a different country to the one where your office is based can sometimes prove a challenge.

This is why Job van der Voort began Remote. During his time as VP of Product at GitLab, van der Voort noticed that they often faced obstacles when wanting to pay international employees due to a complex web of local labour laws, compliance requirements and payroll systems.

Enter: Remote. The business was founded in 2019 with a mission to simplify international hiring and payroll.

Essentially, using Remote means that any company, no matter the size, should be able to hire the best talent from across the globe, breaking down those traditional barriers that often come when trying to hire internationally.

Ease of payroll is one of the best things about using Remote, which is why the company has just highlighted errors management and payroll across companies in its new State of Payroll Report.

The report has found that over 70 per cent of Gen Zs have experienced a mistake in their pay within the past two years, compared to 30 per cent of workers aged over 55.

Remote’s report also identifies a clear generational shift in handling workplace grievances - with younger workers more likely to voice their concerns about payroll mistakes than other generations.

“When companies fail to prioritise payroll accuracy, they risk more than financial losses - they jeopardise their most valuable asset: employee trust,” Mayte Saez, payroll expert at Remote, says.

This is why companies should consider switching to Remote – who has local experts worldwide to ensure compliance – to handle their payrolls.

Plus, using Remote also means companies have access to built-in automated tax calculations, filings and regulatory updates, along with a single unified platform enabling multi-country payroll processing in minutes.
