Sending payroll emails is a key touchpoint with your team, and getting them right matters. They're more than just a notification; they're a reflection of your brand. To make it simple, we're breaking down five types of payroll email templates you can use.
Having a go-to template means you can send clear and consistent communications without starting from scratch each time.
