Plan ahead for summer with Quill

Blooming flowers, out-of-hibernation wildlife, warmer weather and lengthening daylight hours are welcome signs that spring has arrived. At this time of year, employees start to think about booking their summer holiday to take a well-earned break from work.

Holidays are great news for employees who feel rejuvenated and refreshed by spending some quality time with family and friends relaxing for a week or two. But peak holiday season can be stressful for business owners who struggle to fill the gaps presented by absent employees.

It's at times like these, as we approach the impending summertime, that it's worth remembering the benefits of outsourcing. You see, even if your accounts staff are holidaying, your payroll still needs to be processed and pension contributions paid despite potentially having no one available to do the task in house.
