We’re excited to present the SG Umbrella Agency Portal, giving agencies instant access to key compliance and payroll data whenever they need it.

Audits can happen without warning, and agencies are often required to provide information quickly. Our new portal removes the delay by putting everything in one secure, easy-to-use place.

Inside the portal you can access:
- Payslips
- RTI submissions
- P32 reports & HMRC payment evidence
- Full end-to-end audit trail from payslip through to HMRC payment

No chasing emails. No waiting. Just instant, downloadable records whenever you need them.

Powered by My Digital, and underpinned by FCSA accreditation and SafeRec auditing, so the data isn’t just accessible, it’s fully verified.

For access, contact Alex Powell - [email protected]
