Who We Help · Thai HR Teams

You became
an HR professional to focus
on people.
Not payroll runs.

Thai HR teams are carrying more than they should. Payroll calculations, SSF filings, tax submissions, compliance monitoring, and employment documentation — all alongside the strategic work that actually moves the business forward.

Simple Outsource works alongside your HR team — taking ownership of the admin-heavy processes so you can focus on the work that actually needs your expertise.

These aren’t unusual problems. They’re the same ones every company faces when they enter Thailand without a local HR partner.

CASE SNAPSHOT & TESTIMONIAL

What changes when payroll admin stops being your problem

Case snapshot

2-person HR team, [Industry] company, Bangkok — 55 employees

The HR team was spending the first week of every month on payroll processing and compliance filings — leaving almost no time for onboarding, performance management, or the HR projects the business actually needed. A filing error in the previous year had resulted in a penalty notice and significant remediation work.

What Simple Outsource did

  • Took over full monthly payroll cycle — calculations, withholding, SSF, and filings
  • Set up a monthly approval workflow — HR team reviews and signs off in under 1 hour
  • Conducted an HR compliance audit and updated 3 outdated employment contract templates
  • Provided ongoing specialist support for complex employment queries

We were hired to build the people side of the business — but we were spending most of our time on payroll spreadsheets. Simple Outsource took that completely off our plate. Now we actually do the job we were hired to do.

FAQ

Questions HR teams ask before working with Simple Outsource

Will we lose control over payroll if we outsource it?

No. You review and approve every payroll run before it’s processed — nothing goes out without your sign-off. Simple Outsource handles execution; your team retains decision-making authority. You also have full access to payroll data and reports at any time, and all data remains yours if the arrangement ever ends.

The transition is designed to be completely seamless for employees. They receive payslips on the same schedule, from the same process, with the same level of accuracy. The only difference is that the hours your team previously spent on payroll calculations are freed up for other work. We run a parallel cycle before going live to ensure everything is correct.

Yes. We adapt to your current workflows, payroll calendar, and approval processes — not the other way around. We can work with your existing HR software or provide reporting in whichever format your team uses. Compatibility is confirmed as part of the setup process before we take over any processes.

Simple Outsource monitors all regulatory announcements from the Revenue Department, Social Security Office, and Ministry of Labour. When rates, deadlines, or requirements change, we update your payroll configuration before the change takes effect and notify your team of anything that impacts employee costs or obligations. You don’t need to track Thai regulatory updates yourself.

You can outsource just payroll — or any combination of functions that makes sense for your team. Many HR teams start with payroll and later add HR consulting support or work permit management as their needs evolve. We scope every engagement around what actually helps, not a minimum package requirement.

These are exactly the situations where specialist expertise matters most. Simple Outsource handles expat payroll with correct tax residency treatment, variable pay structures including commissions and bonuses, statutory termination payments under the Thai Labour Protection Act, and provident fund contributions and exits. If a situation is genuinely unusual, we advise your team before processing — not after.

Yes. Beyond managing your regular payroll cycle, Simple Outsource serves as a specialist resource for compliance questions — employment contract queries, regulatory interpretation, HR policy review, and anything else that requires deeper Thai HR expertise. You have a named contact who knows your company and can respond when questions come up.

Most transitions are completed within 2–4 weeks. We start by mapping your current setup and employee data, then run a parallel payroll cycle before taking over fully. For teams whose payroll is already well-documented, the process can move faster. We give you a realistic timeline at the first consultation.
