Course Description

The payroll department has one of the most difficult jobs in business. It must comply with a maze of payroll regulations, volumes of paperwork, and an array of disjointed systems to somehow pay employees the correct amounts, remit taxes to the government on time, and issue accurate and timely reports to the government and management. Payroll Management describes how to properly manage the payroll department with a variety of efficiency techniques, procedures, and controls. It also shows how to comply with an array of payroll regulations, deposit taxes, account for payroll transactions, and issue payroll reports.  Finally, special topics such as payroll recordkeeping systems and whether to outsource payroll processing are covered. Numerous examples and practical advice illustrate each of the topics covered.
