Construction payroll
Payroll that keeps up with the site
Hours vary, sites change, paperwork arrives late and the pay run still has to be right.
Overview
The site does not stop because payroll needs a clean week.
Construction payroll deals with workers across multiple sites, hours that change with weather and programme, travel and allowances, several rates, and a mix of employed and subcontracted labour that has to be treated correctly.
We process it around how construction actually operates rather than expecting the site to operate around payroll.
- Weekly and fortnightly processing
- Site-based cost coding
- Variable hours and overtime
- Multiple pay rates and skill-level rates
- Travel and allowance handling
- Timesheet validation against site records
- Employed and subcontracted labour treated correctly
- Starters and leavers at pace
- Holiday pay accrual
- Statutory payments
- Site and cost-centre reporting
- Payroll journals for your accountant
Where construction payroll usually breaks
Four failure points.
If you recognise more than one of these, the process is the problem, not the people.
Timesheets arriving late from site
Chased on the day rather than discovered at cut-off.
Rates applied inconsistently
Rates held centrally against the worker and the site, not remembered.
Status treated casually
Employed and subcontracted arrangements handled correctly and consistently.
No cost visibility by site
Labour cost reported per site, so a job that is losing money shows it early.

Questions
Common questions
We process payroll for your employed workers and can work alongside the arrangements you have for subcontracted labour. Where the correct treatment of a particular arrangement is unclear, we will tell you it needs confirming rather than guess.
Yes. Cost coding by site or job is one of the more useful outputs and one that is frequently missing when payroll is run in-house on a spreadsheet.
We chase them on the day rather than at cut-off, and we will tell you which sites are the recurring problem — which is usually information worth having.
Discuss your specific arrangements with us at quote stage so the correct treatment is confirmed for your business rather than assumed from a website page.
