Payroll Concept and Labor Law Guidelines

Payroll processing sounds like a simple proposition. Employees work at a certain rate of pay. You take out taxes and give them the rest of what they've earned. Sounds like basic math, right? Unfortunately, the Department of Labor’s wage and hour regulations regarding worker classification, minimum wage, overtime and what actually constitutes “hours worked” can be confusing and do not rely solely on “math” to determine compliance when conducting an audit. When you add in the various IRS requirements surrounding taxation and the proper view of government “trust fund” monies a simple task turns into a legal landmine. With this payroll management training, you'll gain strategies to handle payroll accurately, legally and with complete confidence.
