Managed Payroll + Assurance for Australian Businesses
Managed payroll with assurance combines full payroll processing with award interpretation, employment contract reviews, and ongoing compliance checks. Your employees get paid correctly under the right award classifications, and you get written confirmation that your payroll obligations are being met
For businesses where getting payroll wrong isn't just inconvenient - it's a liability
Multi-award complexity
If you've got employees across multiple awards, a mix of full-time, part-time, and casual staff, or you've ever wondered whether your employment contracts actually match what you're paying - this is the service that closes those gaps
Compliance you can stand behind
We don't just process your pay runs. We review your contracts against the relevant awards, flag where classifications don't match, and give you a compliance position you can stand behind if Fair Work comes knocking
Certified payroll specialists
Most payroll providers won't touch award interpretation. We have dedicated payroll specialists with TAPS and APA certifications who do it every day

Why Digit
Why add assurance to managed payroll?
Standard payroll processing gets your people paid. Assurance makes sure you're paying them right - under the correct award, at the correct rate, with contracts that actually reflect the arrangement The difference shows up when someone lodges a Fair Work claim or the ATO runs an audit. With assurance, you've got documentation that proves you did the work, not just a hope that the numbers were right
