The Situation
In Ireland, Sanofi was facing rising contingent worker costs across their business. Before engaging Alexander Mann Solutions (AMS) and CXC, Sanofi’s approach to contractor workforce management was leading to inflated margins, non-compliant practices and process inefficiencies. Prior to CXC, Sanofi was utilising another payroll partner in Ireland, which had been creating worker disenchantment.
They needed a new model – one that enabled them to lower contingent worker costs and remain competitive and compliant within their industry.
CXC's Solution
CXC partnered with AMS to provide compliance, contract and payroll management solutions to Sanofi for their PAYE workforce and future hires, located in Ireland.
CXC engaged with contingent workers, providing a seamless and efficient onboarding process, mitigating risk for the client. A transition phase project was completed to bring all current resource across to CXC payroll along with all new requests leading to a successful implementation of service.
Then AMS requested CXC’s support to provide a similar solution for Sanofi’s UK business.
Key services CXC provides to AMS Sanofi include:
- Sanofi Helpdesk – a dedicated team to support Ireland and UK solutions
- Compliance, contract and payroll management
- Welcome pack created to assist contingent workers during the registration process
- Streamlined onboarding activity
- Efficient and secure online contracts process
- Available resource to support contingent worker during assignment through to offboarding
- Key support for all contract extensions and termination requests
- Dedicated payroll team to support the payroll process for the client
- Weekly payments made to contingent workers and payslips provided by email for ease
- Holiday information pack created to provide visibility to all new starters on process
CXC provides these services in conjunction with, and as part of, the AMS model which manages the end-to-end recruitment process for business units within the Sanofi Group
The Results
CXC’s solutions have delivered enhanced visibility, compliance and governance controls to Sanofi. This has resulted in business risk mitigation for Sanofi across Ireland and the UK.
