Our Top 3 Pegasus Payroll Features
Salary Sacrifice
Salary sacrifice is becoming more and more popular with companies deciding to use it with their pension schemes and can be financially beneficial for both employers and employees.
Under a salary sacrifice arrangement, an employee gives up some of their cash earnings in return for new or increased entitlements to non-cash benefits provided by their employer. Apart from pension contributions, non-cash benefits include childcare vouchers, cycle schemes, travel, subsistence allowances and others.
It’s included as standard with Opera 3 Payroll and is very quick and simple to set up. Salary sacrifice can be used for both pension and non-pension sacrifices.
