You can, depending on the size and complexity of your business and your finance team. For a small shop with a few employees and a simple pay structure, manual payroll might be manageable. However, it’s time-consuming and error-prone. Payroll software can save you time, minimise errors, and ensure compliance with tax regulations.

When it comes to payroll taxes for your retail staff, there are a few key ones to remember. You’ll need to withhold income tax from their salaries through PAYG Withholding and remit it to the ATO. Additionally, you’re responsible for contributing a percentage of their ordinary earnings (OTE) towards their superannuation fund. Finally, depending on your location and if your business surpasses a wage threshold, you might also be liable for payroll tax on the wages you pay your employees.

STP is a government initiative requiring most employers to report their employees’ salary and super information electronically to the ATO each time they pay their employees. While not all retailers may be mandated yet, it’s good practice to be familiar with STP and its potential future implementation.

You need to keep detailed records for at least seven years, including timesheets, payslips, tax reports, and other payroll documentation. This ensures you can demonstrate compliance with regulations in case of an audit.

Retail businesses can reap significant benefits from payroll software. It automates error-prone calculations, saving time and minimising mistakes. No more wrestling with spreadsheets – the software handles salaries, overtime, taxes, and deductions with accuracy. This eliminates the challenge of staying up-to-date and guarantees you’re withholding the correct amount of PAYG tax, giving you peace of mind.

Payroll software streamlines tasks like generating payslips, managing deductions, and filing reports, freeing you and your staff to focus on other areas of your retail business. Payroll software also simplifies recordkeeping by electronically storing all payroll data for easy access and ensuring you meet the legal requirement of keeping records for seven years.

Finally, some software, like Payroller, offers employee-facing apps that promote transparency and improve communication within your team by allowing staff to access payslips, update personal details, and even submit leave requests electronically.

Payroller is an STP-enabled software that automatically submits payroll information to the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) – through a secure cloud network – whenever you perform a payrun. Payroller helps you to track, manage and record your payroll while safely sharing that information (and staying compliant) with the ATO.
