Payroll services
“I think my pay is wrong!”
Ever heard this before? It can happen – and though it’s inconvenient, once it’s fixed everyone is usually happy. But it raises some questions:
- How do we know if all our payroll components are accurate?
- Are we processing superannuation properly?
- How do we fix payroll errors?
- What should be on a pay slip?
- What about salary sacrifice?
- What about Single Touch Payroll (STP)?
- And the list goes on!
Payroll is a very sensitive area of your accounts – not only because of the confidential nature of the information, but also you’re dealing with people’s income which can be very personal. Getting it consistently right can prevent a multitude of issues. And it’s not just your employees you need to take care of, you also need to make sure everything is squared off properly with the ATO.
