Payroll Training Seminars, Webinars, And Online Classes
Payroll goes beyond issuing checks. For instance, Payroll Specialists must know the legalities of exempt versus non-exempt employees; how to deduct taxes; how to make deductions for health benefits; which employees are entitled to or took vacation or sick days; and how to handle wage garnishments or child support payments.
Additionally, Payroll Specialists must comply accurately and timely with a variety of federal and state payroll reporting requirements, not just for taxation purposes, but for laws covering things like final and/or unclaimed paychecks.
