English term or phrase: corporate payroll
Bonjour,

Je cherche le terme adaptée à utiliser dans ce contexte.

"Payroll
You will be paid from the corporate payroll. Salaries are paid monthly, at the end of each month. To neutralize the effects of foreign currency fluctuations, you may choose to receive a portion of your pay in local currency."

Merci d'avance.

Erratum: 'Siège' instead of 'siege'

'Corporate' is translated by 'Siège' because the text submitted for translation distinguishes between the headquarters of the company and the foreign post of one of its employees

  -> Did you read the erratum above?
neutral  Peter LEGUIE: In this case, I would like to say "sera versé (directement) par le siège (social)" although I still prefer my answer (excusez la modestie!).

Service centrale de paye/Service corporatif de paie


Explanation:
Dépendant du niveau de français utilisé, paye=paie et «corporate» réfère plutôt selon moi à l'entreprise plutôt qu'à son siège social. En français international, comme celui utilisé en Amérique du Nord, nous avons ces deux termes ci-haut mentionnés.

vous émargerez (directement) auprès de la société


Explanation:
I am quite sure that "émarger" is used in European French. But it may be uszeful to specify "siège social" according to the context.

This term goes back to the (recent) days when workers had to sign the payroll in front of the boss, and although we now live in a computerized world, the expression is still used in a figurative way.
