Capability Ramco Payce Other Payroll Outsourcing Providers
Global Payroll Runs the Philippines and 150+ countries through one platform with standardised controls across markets. May rely on regional vendors or separate engines with different country-level operating models.
Philippines Compliance Supports BIR withholding, statutory contributions, thirteen-month pay and regional wage settings within configured workflows. Local coverage may depend on provider configuration, partner capability or implementation scope.
BIR Withholding Applies compensation tax tables and prepares monthly or year-end records through governed payroll workflows. Tax calculations may require separate checks before submission and year-end adjustment are completed.
Government Contributions Calculates employer and employee portions using agency schedules, salary credits, premium bases and programme rules. Contribution information may move through separate portals, increasing reconciliation effort before payment.
Thirteenth-Month Pay Calculates eligible basic salary and proportionate entitlement within the regular payroll environment. Calculations may require offline schedules or separate approvals outside standard payroll processing.
Payroll Operations Standardises inputs, approvals, outputs and audit records across Philippine entities through one operating model. Processes may vary by entity or provider, limiting consolidated oversight for regional leaders.
Scalability Supports high-volume workforces and regional growth without adding separate payroll platforms or local engines. Growth may require additional vendors or integrations as operating complexity increases.

What Is Payroll System Software Used for in the Philippines?
Payroll system software in the Philippines calculates salaries, withholding tax, statutory contributions and 13-month pay. It also produces payslips, payment files, agency records and year-end certificates. Enterprise employers can standardise payroll controls across legal entities while retaining regional wage rules and Philippine compliance requirements within each configured pay cycle securely.
What Statutory Contributions Must Payroll in the Philippines Calculate?
Payroll in the Philippines generally requires deductions or employer contributions for SSS, PhilHealth, Pag-IBIG, and Employees’ Compensation, as well as withholding tax, where applicable. Payroll software stores employee status and compensation data, applies current schedules, separates employer and employee portions, and prepares records for monthly payment, reporting, and reconciliation workflows accurately each cycle.
Can Payroll Software Calculate 13th-Month Pay?
Yes. Payroll software can calculate 13-month pay from eligible basic salary earned during the calendar year, including proportionate amounts for employees who leave before year-end. It can exclude ineligible earnings, route calculations for approval, and schedule payment. Private-sector employers must generally complete payment on or before 24 December each year.
How Does a Payroll System Handle BIR Withholding and Form 2316?
A payroll system applies current withholding tax tables to taxable compensation and performs year-end adjustment when required. It can prepare monthly BIR Form 1601-C data, annual alphalist records, and BIR Form 2316 certificates. Employees generally receive Form 2316 by 31 January following the relevant calendar year or upon final payment.
Can Payroll Software Manage Regional Minimum Wages and Overtime?
Yes. Payroll software can assign employees to the correct regional wage configuration, then calculate overtime, holiday pay, night-shift differential and other applicable premiums. This is important for employers operating across several Philippine regions because minimum wage orders and related pay rules can vary by work location and employee classification.
What Is the Difference Between Payroll Software and Payroll Outsourcing?
Payroll software provides the platform used for calculations, approvals, reporting and employee access. Payroll outsourcing in the Philippines assigns agreed processing activities to an external provider. Enterprises can combine both approaches by using Ramco Payce as the governed control platform while an internal team or service partner completes defined operational tasks.
Can Employees Access Payslips and Contribution Records Online?
Yes. Employees can use a secure payroll portal to view payslips, withholding information, contribution records, and leave balances through web or mobile access. Role-based permissions and encrypted data help protect sensitive information. Self-service also reduces routine HR requests by giving employees secure, direct access to current and historical payroll records.
Can Payroll System Software Integrate With Existing Business Systems?
Yes. Payroll system software can receive approved attendance, leave, overtime and employee changes from connected HR platforms. It can also create bank-ready payment files, agency contribution outputs and finance journals. Integrated workflows reduce duplicate entry, improve traceability, strengthen approvals and accelerate payroll close across complex Philippine entities and workforce groups.
