Businesses such as pubs, hotels and restaurants carry particular difficulties when they are using payroll outsourcing. Hotels, for example, will have rapid and weekly turnaround for their payroll. This will require the payroll company they choose to have the ability to respond quickly as well as competently in the processing of the client's staff payroll.

There will also be the issue of taxing tips that are given to waiters and other staff that work in the hotel. The minimum wage needs to be carefully observed. Staff members from abroad may present complicated taxation and National Insurance difficulties.

Many of the low paid posts will have a rapid turnover rate and as new members of staff are taken on; their details, tax codes and so forth will need to be processed as quickly as possible to ensure their wages are paid on time.

As well as the permanent staff, there will be many casual workers and their numbers will fluctuate according to the seasons. Sometimes a hotel will run events such as conferences and will take on extra staff to cope with the sudden influx of guests and other visitors to the hotel.

Some establishments will require a detailed report for each of its separate departments.
