The True Cost of Payroll Errors in 2025 and How to Fix Them for Good
Payroll errors aren’t just admin headaches, they cost businesses thousands, damage employee trust, and can even lead to compliance risks. Despite new technology, many UK companies still rely on manual or outdated time tracking methods that make mistakes almost inevitable.
Our new free whitepaper, The True Cost of Payroll Errors in 2025 and How Smart Time & Attendance Systems Fix Them, explores the hidden impact of inaccurate payroll and how automation can transform your business.
Why Payroll Accuracy Matters
Recent research shows the scale of the issue:
- 47% of UK employees have been paid late or incorrectly
- 25% have received the wrong payslip
- 91% of employers admit to payroll errors every month
(Source: Global Payroll Association, Phase 3, AccountingWEB)
Every mistake undermines trust and drains resources. One in five employees consider leaving their job after being paid late or incorrectly, and replacing a team member can cost up to 1.5–2× their annual salary. The real cost goes far beyond the payslip.
The Hidden Costs of Payroll Inaccuracy
Payroll mistakes lead to:
- Overpayments and costly corrections
- Hours lost investigating disputes
- HMRC penalties and compliance risks
- Lower staff morale and turnover
Even for mid-sized companies, these inefficiencies can total over £150,000 a year in lost time and errors.
