Full payroll cycle management

Payroll requires precise, recurring management aligned with employment and Social Security regulations.
We support companies with monthly payroll calculations, review of remuneration items, incident management and coordination of the information required to ensure consistent and traceable processes.

Employee registrations, terminations and Social Security

Labour administration involves recurring processes with a direct impact on the company’s compliance position.
We advise and support companies on employee registrations, terminations, variations, contributions, Social Security filings and communications linked to the employment relationship.

Payroll incidents and remuneration items

Payroll incidents may arise from contractual changes, sick leave, absences, variable remuneration, bonuses, benefits, salary supplements or internal company criteria.
We review and manage payroll incidents from a technical and employment law perspective, ensuring that the items applied are consistent, understandable and aligned with the applicable regulations.

Coordination with Human Resources

Effective payroll management requires constant coordination with Human Resources, finance teams and, in many cases, international teams.
We work with companies that need clear processes, reliable information and responsiveness in recurring employment matters.

Payroll for international companies in Spain

International companies hiring or relocating employees to Spain need to adapt their internal criteria to Spanish employment and Social Security requirements.
We support foreign companies with payroll management, employee registrations, terminations, contributions and recurring labour administration in Spain.

Coordination with employment law advice

Payroll is closely connected to hiring, remuneration, Social Security, internal policies, international mobility, employment compliance and labour relations.
For this reason, our payroll service is coordinated with the firm’s employment law advice, allowing risks to be identified, criteria to be structured and payroll management to remain consistent with the company’s employment strategy.

How we support the process

Assessment

Current payroll processes, workforce structure, employment obligations, remuneration criteria and Human Resources needs.

Management

Payroll preparation, incidents, employee registrations, terminations, variations, Social Security contributions and recurring employment documentation.

Coordination

Communication with Human Resources, finance teams, internal stakeholders and, where required, international structures.

Follow-up

When to involve employment counsel

Payroll support should be involved when a company needs to ensure precise labour administration, reduce incidents or improve coordination between payroll, Human Resources and employment compliance.

 

Early involvement is particularly important when a company is growing, hiring in Spain, incorporating international talent, reviewing remuneration structures, implementing HRIS systems or identifying recurring payroll or contribution errors.

 

A preventive approach helps structure processes before incidents become employment or Social Security contingencies.
