Payroll & MPF Management
Payroll Management
Whether you run SME, multinational, or new start-up, employees are the most valuable assets of your company. Companies should establish a stable payroll system for their employees. AutoPay, cheque, and cash are the most common ways that companies use to pay salaries to their employees, and AutoPay is the most favored method.
Our payroll team can assist companies to establish the auto payroll system in different banks. Companies can enjoy smooth and efficient services in Human Resources by using our Payroll System Management Service.
Keep in mind that…
According to the Employment Ordinance, Chapter 57: Payment of Wages, wages shall be paid by the last day of the wage period. An employer who exceeds this period should pay the wage to employees as soon as practicable but in any case not later than seven days after the end of the wage period. An employer is required to pay an interest on the outstanding amount of wages to the employee, if he fails to pay the wage to the employee within seven days when it becomes due.
Failure of Payment
If wages are not paid within one month after they become due, an employee may deem his contract of employment to be terminated by his employer without notice and is entitled to wages in lieu of notice in addition to other statutory and contractual termination payment.
Offences and Penalties
An employer, who willfully or without a reasonable excuse fails to pay wages to an employee, is liable to prosecution and upon conviction to a fine up to $350,000 or to imprisonment for three years. An employer who willfully or without a reasonable excuse fails to pay an interest on the outstanding amount of wages to the employee is liable to prosecution and, upon conviction, to a fine of $10,000.
