Outsourcing can be a cost-effective solution — but when payroll is offshored, it’s worth asking: what’s the real price of that saving?
🔐 Do your employees know where their personal data is being held?
📍 Is your business truly comfortable with that data sitting in systems — and hands — overseas?
Offshoring payroll means your employees’ sensitive information, including:
- Full names and addresses
- National Insurance numbers
- Bank details
- Historical payslips
- P60s and P45s
…could be accessed by unknown individuals abroad — people with no contractual link to your business, often operating outside of UK data protection standards.
These documents alone contain enough to:
✅ Apply for credit
✅ Open financial accounts
✅ Even take out a mortgage in someone else’s name
And yet, they’re handled by multiple third-party service users, often without your employees’ knowledge or clear consent.
📣 Your team trusts you with their data.
That trust shouldn’t stop at compliance — it should extend to confidence in who holds that data, where, and why.
At Augustus Payroll Services, we believe in keeping payroll personal, protected, and onshore — because data safety isn’t just a policy, it’s a promise.
