Speaker Designation: MS Payroll, Employment Tax Consultant
The Payroll Department creates thousands of records each year. Unfortunately, there are many agencies and a multitude of rules, regulations, and paperwork requirements to comply with and to make matters worse, different agencies have different requirements for different records - and employers must not only comply with all of them, but keep accurate records!
With all those records around, it's tempting to have a big clean-out day. But if you destroy the wrong document, you could be destroying your career.
So, if your payroll records "desk" looks like a hurricane just blew through it, your payroll recordkeeping "system" is non-existent, or if your basement is stacked to the ceiling with payroll records, let us help you organize them in a way that inspires confidence - and compliance.
There is a myriad of state and federal legislative requirements for payroll and human resource recordkeeping. Thankfully, in the digital age, most if not all of the data is kept by companies in one form or another. The challenge is to have it available when you need it. There are too many agencies to count - both public and private - that can require access to your payroll and hr records.
Are you 100% certain that you are in compliance with federal and state payroll record keeping rules?
Even a 1% degree of uncertainty can subject your organization to fines and penalties.
So why take the chance when you get up-to-date with our payroll records and payroll recordkeeping training courses. This training session covers the rules for identifying, filing, retaining, protecting, and destroying your important payroll records.
This webinar will be available soon. Please contact customer care for new schedule date.
