An international business meets unprecedented times
As a global organisation, international satellite operator Telestat delivers connectivity solutions around the world.

Telestat engaged in a procurement process which involved a number of competitors, as well as Mauve Group.
"We contacted four different payroll providers in a competitive procurement process and from the very beginning Mauve Group really stood out." - Monique de Medeiros, Senior Payroll Analyst for Telestat

Problems faced
Telestat needed to establish payroll operations in Italy, as part of a new assignment. Additionally, the world was in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, which further complicated this assignment.
When a company pays workers in a new country, there are a number of factors to consider. They must ensure 100% compliance with all local tax laws. They must also keep up to date with any and all adjustments to local payroll and tax regulations. Payroll regulations differ greatly between regions. This can present compliance risks for organisations operating globally.
Non-compliance, even if accidental, can leave companies open to serious consequences. These can include significant fines, legal proceedings, loss of business, and reputational damage.
Partnering for success: finding the right solution
Mauve Group beat out several other providers to win a contract with Telestat, to provide Global Payroll services for their workers in Italy.
- 100% compliance achieved: Mauve helped Telestat to ensure 100% compliance when seamlessly remitting salaries to its workers in Italy.
- Ongoing support: Mauve’s team of experts ensured that payroll was timely and consistent, despite the challenge of the pandemic. The Mauve team continues to keep ahead of any and all changes to local tax law, ensuring all relevant legislation is taken into account when paying Telestat workers in Italy.
"The team at Mauve is incredibly responsive, and we were impressed with their value proposition and the communications throughout the contracting and implementation process. We set up our first payroll with Mauve Group during the global pandemic, which created added complexities, but the team was always available to provide support, which really firmed up our partnership." - Monique de Medeiros, Senior Payroll Analyst for Telestat
Key takeaways
- Reliable salary remittance: Telestat was able to rest assure that its workers in Italy were paid compliantly and on-time - despite the pandemic - via Mauve’s Global Payroll solution.
- 100% compliance: Mauve’s team of experts monitor all changes and updates to local legislation, meaning nothing is missed, and payroll remains compliant.
