# Human Resources Payment Practices Report 2023

# UK HR Sector Payment Practices: Wide Disparity Despite High Average Score

## The Numbers

*   Companies analysed: 108
*   Average PaymentCheck Score: 80.0/100
*   UK average: 50.0/100
*   Difference between HR average and UK average: 30.0 points

## What Stands Out

While the HR sector significantly outperforms the UK average in payment practices, a substantial performance gap exists between the best and worst payers. The fact that three companies achieved a perfect score suggests that consistently excellent payment performance is attainable within the sector.

## Best Payers

1. [KPMG UK LIMITED](/company-search/03580549/kpmg-uk-limited) - 100/100
2. [PAYSTREAM MY MAX 3 LIMITED](/company-search/07708464/paystream-my-max-3-limited) - 100/100
3. [ID MEDICAL GROUP LIMITED](/company-search/03829536/id-medical-group-limited) - 100/100
4. [PAYSTREAM MY MAX LIMITED](/company-search/06042225/paystream-my-max-limited) - 99.2/100
5. [FIRCROFT ENGINEERING SERVICES LIMITED](/company-search/01405855/fircroft-engineering-services-limited) - 99.2/100

## Worst Payers

1. [PTS GROUP LIMITED](/company-search/02219435/pts-group-limited) - 12/100
2. [ALLIANCE HEALTHCARE MANAGEMENT SERVICES LIMITED](/company-search/07073443/alliance-healthcare-management-services-limited) - 26.33/100
3. [GSF CAR PARTS LIMITED](/company-search/01779084/gsf-car-parts-limited) - 28/100
4. [MEDACS HEALTHCARE LIMITED](/company-search/02518546/medacs-healthcare-limited) - 33.5/100
5. [NOBLE DRILLING (LAND SUPPORT) LIMITED](/company-search/SC118867/noble-drilling-land-support-limited) - 39.6/100

## Regional Patterns

There are regional variations, but data is limited, so only broad statements can be made. The North East, with an average score of 97.2, appears to have the strongest payment practices, although this is based on just one company. The South West (91.4 avg, 8 companies), West Midlands (89.8 avg, 6 companies), and North West (86.2 avg, 14 companies) also have above-average payment practices. The small sample sizes, especially in the North East, West Midlands, and companies with unknown region, mean the regional average data should be interpreted with caution.

Despite a generally healthy average PaymentCheck score of 80/100, the worst payer, PTS Group Limited, scores just 12/100, which highlights the crucial differences between organisations within the HR sector.
