Overview
Lamb Weston is a global leader in frozen potato products, with operations spanning over 100 countries and a firmwide headcount of 5,000–10,000 employees. For their Singapore office, which employs 9 people, managing payroll accurately and compliantly was critical as part of their broader international growth strategy.
Helen Morris, International Payroll Specialist at Lamb Weston, shares how PayrollServe’s expertise helped simplify Singapore payroll operations, reduce risk, and provide confidence to their team.
The Challenge
Managing payroll across multiple countries brought operational strain to Lamb Weston’s international HR and payroll teams. Navigating different national regulations, compliance requirements, and complex processes created uncertainty, particularly for the Singapore office’s payroll administration.
The Solution
To address these challenges, Lamb Weston turned to PayrollServe to streamline and manage their payroll operations for their Singapore based employees. PayrollServe provided not only operational execution but also ongoing education and guidance, helping the client's team understand and manage payroll more effectively.
The support extended beyond routine processes, assisting Lamb Weston with enquiries related to IR8A and IR21 submissions to ensure compliance with Singapore’s tax filing obligations. PayrollServe also proactively shared HR-related resources from statutory sources, supporting informed and compliant decision-making. Furthermore, ad-hoc requests were met with prompt responses, demonstrating flexibility and a strong commitment to client success.
