In today’s dynamic regulatory environment, ensuring the accuracy and legal compliance of payroll processes is essential – not just for financial efficiency, but also for protecting your business from reputational and regulatory risks.

At HWC, we provide a comprehensive Payroll Methodology Review to help you evaluate labor cost efficiency, ensure payroll accuracy, and prepare your company for potential inspections by the Ministry of Social Policy and the State Labour Service of Ukraine.

Why Payroll Accuracy Matters

An in-depth analysis of labor costs helps you:

• Monitor the effective use of your wage fund
• Make informed, data-driven management decisions
• Assess employee performance and compensation alignment
• Track trends in average wages
• Avoid penalties from non-compliance during state audits

A proactive payroll methodology review also enables your organization to detect inconsistencies, eliminate errors, and ensure compliance with evolving legislation.

Regulatory Focus Areas During Inspection

Labour Inspectors typically review your company’s compliance with:

• The Labour Code of Ukraine, especially regarding minimum state guarantees in remuneration
• The Law of Ukraine “On Labour Remuneration”
• The Law of Ukraine “On Holidays”
• The Procedure for Calculating Average Salary (Income, Monetary Security) for mandatory social insurance
• Regulations governing employee compensation, including collective agreements and internal pay policies
