Australia Payroll & Expansion Advice
Running payroll in Australia
Completing payroll in a country like Australia requires a deep understanding of local tax laws, employment regulations, and reporting requirements.
From registering with the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) to navigating Superannuation, and complying with Fair Work Ombudsman standards, local knowledge is required.
Businesses expanding into Australia must ensure:
- Registration as an employer with the ATO and issuance of a Tax File Number (TFN) for employees.
- Accurate collection and storage of employee details, including TFNs and Superannuation fund information.
- Correct application of income tax rates, including PAYG (Pay As You Go) withholding.
- Compliance with minimum pay, leave entitlements, and working hour regulations under the National Employment Standards (NES).
- Timely payment of Superannuation Guarantee contributions (currently 11% of ordinary time earnings).
- Issuing Single Touch Payroll (STP) reports to the ATO each payday.
Without specialist support, these requirements can become a significant administrative burden, particularly when working across different time zones and currencies. That’s where Leap29 can help.
How can our global payroll services support your expansion into Australia?
With a GDP of approximately USD 1.6 trillion and ranked 13th globally in the 2024 Index of Economic Freedom by The Heritage Foundation, Australia offers a robust economy, transparent regulatory systems, and a highly skilled workforce. These favourable conditions make it an enticing opportunity for companies seeking long-term international growth.
However, to take full advantage of the opportunities Australia offers, without compromising on compliance, you’ll need a trusted PEO provider to support your global expansion.
Non-compliance is just one of the many risks businesses will face when entering Australian markets. Alongside this comes the complex task of managing accurate and timely payroll for your employees. When you factor in the need to calculate salaries, issue compliant payslips, manage multi-currency payments, and navigate local tax and employment laws, the administrative burden can quickly become overwhelming – draining valuable time and resources that could be used for growing your business.
Our Australian payroll services include:
- Complying with Australian employment laws.
- Salary calculations and payments handling multi-currency transactions.
- Issuing compliant payslips weekly, fortnightly, or monthly.
- PAYG withholding and tax reporting.
- Superannuation contributions.
- Reimbursements, bonuses, and benefits processing.
- Employment contract compliance and HR support.
Leap29’s Australian payroll solutions can be tailored to suit your company’s specific needs, from paying a single employee, to paying a large-scale team.
