Why Payroll Errors Start in HR | SCHADS Audit Readiness for NDIS Providers

Introduction

This video explains the HR to payroll compliance pipeline and how payroll accuracy is created through HR workflows rather than within payroll itself. It breaks down the key steps that ensure SCHADS payroll compliance, starting from HR setup, through employee onboarding and contract confirmation, to mapping classifications and applying payroll rules. Viewers will gain a clear understanding of how roles, classification templates, employee data, licenses, and contracts all feed into accurate pay and entitlements under the SCHADS Award. The video highlights the connection between HR processes and payroll outcomes, showing the sequential steps that form the compliance chain.

Key Takeaways

• Payroll accuracy is established through HR workflows, not within payroll alone.
• HR setup includes defining roles, classification templates, and onboarding processes.
• Employee onboarding involves collecting personal data, licenses, and documents.

HR to Payroll Compliance Overview

a HR to payroll compliance pipeline. So payroll accuracy isn't created inside payroll; it's created by the HR workflows, and the steps leading to payroll compliance form kind of a chain.

HR Setup

So there's the HR setup, which is defining the roles, defining the classification templates, and the onboarding processes.

Employee Onboarding

Then there's the actual onboarding itself, which is collecting the employee data, their licenses, and their documents.

Employment Contract

Then there's the contract, which involves confirming the award level, the employment type, and the pay point.

Classification Mapping

Then there's selecting the right classification, which is mapping the contract to the actual SCHADS award rules.

Payroll Application

And then finally, we have payroll, which is applying those rules to interpret the pay and entitlements.
