New Online Portal

Written by admin | Aug 28, 2024 10:27:17 AM

Back in September 2023, with a group of volunteer employers. we started a trial of a new online portal. We have taken to put the system ‘through its paces’ and listen to the valuable feedback from our volunteer group.

After extremely positive feedback we started a soft launch to a group of clients in April 2024 and this is going well.

The new system Brightpay Connect will be replacing PaySafe, with a gradual change over the next 18 months.

 

What is BrightPay Connect?

BrightPay Connect introduces you to an easy-to-use online dashboard with a wide range of features and benefits for employers and employees.

Payroll Records - Instantly access your employees' payslips and payroll documents, run your own payroll reports, and view amounts due to HMRC anywhere, anytime through your secure online portal.

Employee Smartphone App - Employees can download their employee app on their Smartphone or tablet giving them instant access to their payroll information - on the go. The employee app is available to download for free on any Android or iOS device.

Upload Employee Hours - Easily submit your employee hours each pay period dhpayroll through your secure online portal. You can also inform dhpayroll of new employees.

However, should you prefer to continue sending in data as you do know that is fine too.

Employee Self-Service - Invite your employees to their online self-service portal and employee app where they can access their payslip library, access payroll documents and update personal contact details.

 

Over the next 18 months we will be contacting clients to let them know when they will be moved over to the new online portal, as we feel the new systems offers a real improvement for our clients. As you can see the new portal offers a range of new services for clients, but we do understand that changing systems can feel daunting, and we want to reassure that we will be here to assist you every step of the way.

Please continue to use PaySafe as usual until you hear from us that you have been transferred to the new system.
