Rayner Essex achieves CIPP’s Payroll Assurance Scheme accreditation

Rayner Essex is proud to announce that we have successfully achieved the prestigious Payroll Assurance Scheme (PAS) accreditation. This milestone reflects our dedication to maintaining the highest standards in payroll compliance, efficiency, and service delivery.

Setting the standard – What PAS accreditation means for payroll services

The Payroll Assurance Scheme is a gold standard recognition developed by the Chartered Institute of Payroll Professionals (CIPP) in collaboration with HMRC. The accreditation assesses over 100 elements of a payroll provider’s operations, including risk management, process efficiency, and staff training and expertise. Achieving this accreditation validates our status as a trusted, compliant, and client-focused payroll service provider.

A closer look at the Payroll Assurance Scheme and CIPP

As the leading professional body for payroll professionals in the UK, the CIPP developed PAS to elevate payroll standards across the industry. PAS ensures payroll providers adhere to legislative compliance and demonstrate operational excellence. Our success in attaining this recognition underscores our long-standing commitment to professional integrity, continuous improvement, and industry best practice.
