In this “The Future Of Payroll, Technology and Pay-on-Demand” episode with David Ossip on The Payroll Podcast, we also explore:
- A lot has changed over the course of 2020, particularly in the workplace, so what are your thoughts on the seismic shift we’ve witnessed in the world of work, and where you see it going over the next few years?
- While technology has been changing the way we work for some time, payroll seems to be one area that hasn’t seen the same scale of innovation, at least not here in the UK. With this in mind, what does the future of payroll look like from your perspective?
- How does Dayforce Wallet work, and what are the benefits you see it driving for both the employee and the employer?
- What was the catalyst behind Dayforce bringing this type of solution to market?
- What has the response been from customers, and what are your expectations for growth down the road?
- What industries, sectors, or types of employment do you think would benefit most from an on-demand pay solution?
- What is it that differentiates Dayforce Wallet in the market?
- What do you think the future of payroll looks like and do you think it is a future that payroll professionals should be excited, rather than anxious about embracing?
