Payroll Basics PEOs Master for You

quality-payroll • November 1, 2022

Do you know why your employees show up to work every day? There may be multiple reasons, but there’s one that applies to every employee who ever works for you: they want a paycheck. Because of how essential getting paid is to everyday life, one of the surest ways to upset your employees is to mess up payroll. Fortunately, partnering with a PEO means that the PEO masters payroll essentials for you.

Accuracy

Want to upset your employees and accountants at the same time? Mess up payroll so people aren’t getting paid what they’re owed. Payroll accuracy is a big deal. Underpaid employees will be understandably upset. Their paychecks are what they base their budgets around, and messing those up can have serious consequences in their home lives. If you overpay them, you then have to deal with figuring out how to get that money back or risk messing up your bottom line. Mistakes are easy to make when you have other tasks that demand your attention. Fortunately, payroll accuracy is something PEOs excel at.

Timeliness

Have you ever been on the receiving end of a delayed paycheck? That’s another good way to end up with disgruntled employees. Remember, your employees are dependent on their pay to live. Paying your employees on time is one of the most important responsibilities you have to your employees, right up there with paying them the right amount and creating a safe work environment. Because payroll is one of the things PEOs specialize in, you can trust that your employees will get paid on time as long as you partner with a quality PEO.

Compliance

Federal, state, and local regulations govern how employees are supposed to be paid. Failing to be compliant with these regulations can land your business in hot water, resulting in fines and penalties. Staying compliant with regulations can be easier said than done though. Those regulations are subject to change at any level, and you’ll still be expected to adhere to them. Fortunately, a quality PEO will stay on top of regulations and any changes that are made to them, removing all the effort required from you to remain compliant with payroll regulations.

Every business needs to get payroll right. Failing to do so can land you in some serious trouble. It’s not always easy to do correctly though. When you partner with a PEO like Quality Payroll & Services, you no longer have to stress about whether or not payroll gets done correctly. Rely on our payroll experts to handle it all for you and you won’t have to worry about mistakes resulting in unhappy employees or trouble with the IRS.
