    3Degrees - Challenge

    A better payroll management processes

    A reliance on multiple HRIS systems slowed global growth. Prior to activpayroll integration, 3Degrees lacked an effective unified platform for timely payroll and HR processing. International pay dates varied, multiple points of contact caused confusion, and payroll management became cumbersome. Issues around mobility tax, pensions, and benefits added to operational complexity and compliance risk.

    activ8 integration supports local compliance

    Following a recommendation from UKG, 3Degrees evaluated several solutions before selecting activpayroll for its scalability. Integration began in June with a go-live date set for August, delivering a standardised payroll solution with centralised reporting. activpayroll’s activ8 integration transformed payroll management across seven countries, improving pay consistency, compliance, and visibility, while reducing administrative burdens. Local experts now ensure accurate tax and legislative compliance across all jurisdictions.

    $100,000 annual cost-savings

    The integration of activpayroll into the existing UKG workforce solution streamlined payroll processes, ensured timely and accurate payments, and reduced stress for staff. Payroll automation enabled strategic focus, eliminated duplication, and reduced FTE by 1.5 positions, saving $100,000 annually. Employees now experience consistent pay, and HR teams operate with greater efficiency and compliance oversight.

    Payroll expansion includes APAC 

    Centralised payroll management and on-the-ground support have reduced administrative workload and eliminated manual data provision. Automation improves efficiency and allows teams to focus on strategic initiatives such as enhancing employee benefits. Payroll processes are now consistent across time zones and locations, enabling scalable global expansion.
