Time Savings

No matter how many employees a business has, processing payroll demands a lot of time and attention to detail. There is a large amount of data involved in processing payroll. Your time is valuable, and the time you spend on your business should be devoted to generating revenue, not dealing with payroll and other administrative tasks.

Here are a few tasks payroll processing requires:

Step 1 – Employee Information Gathering

Business owners start by collecting some or all of the following employee information:

  • W-4

  • Applicable state withholding certificates (many states require a form in addition to the federal W-4)

  • W-9 (if hiring independent contractors)

  • Form I-9

  • Complete job application

  • Bank information (if direct deposit is an option)

  • Medical insurance forms

  • Retirement plan documents

Step 2 – Employee Timekeeping

Employees are then informed about their paycheck schedule and how the company expects work hours recorded.

Step 3 – Approvals for Payroll

At the end of the pay period, the payroll administrator verifies hours worked and secures approval for payment, including any supplemental income from bonuses or overtime.

Step 4 – Taxes and Withholding

Net pay is calculated based on gross earnings minus the total amount of deductions and withholdings (federal, state, and local taxes, retirement contributions, medical insurance, additional deductions such as child support, etc). When the person responsible calculates wages, they need to know which deductions to take before or after taxes have been assessed.  

Step 5 – Submitting Payments

Paychecks are delivered to employees and the amounts withheld submitted to the appropriate entity. Employers are responsible for a share of payroll taxes. Calculating and submitting to taxing authorities on time avoids hefty fines and penalties.

Step 6 – Payroll Recording and Reporting

Federal and state payroll reports are generated and sent as often as quarterly. Payroll requires a lot of data and paperwork, much of which is sensitive in nature. It can be challenging to develop an adequate filing system where all that data and employee information can be maintained and accessed whenever necessary
