Hear From A Restaurant We Work With

“The main advantage of People Lease for us is the fact they’re local. If I need to speak to the head man I can actually pick up the phone and get him. If there’s a problem or an issue we need to solve, they’ve been more than willing to help work it out on any level, all the way up the chain. We just really appreciate that accessibility and willingness to solve problems.”

Restaurant Payroll & HR Services FAQs

How does payroll processing work?

Payroll processing involves calculating employee wages, applying taxes and deductions, and issuing payments accurately and on time. It also includes maintaining payroll records and filing required tax forms with government agencies.

For a more detailed breakdown on how payroll processing works, check out the payroll solution.

How are tipped employees and tip credits handled?

Tipped wages, tip credits, and blended rates are automatically based on federal and state rules. The payroll process ensures that pooled tips, multiple roles, or minimum cash requirements are paid correctly so that your business stays compliant.

How can payroll & HR solutions help with high turnover?

While payroll & HR solutions don't directly resolve employee turnover, they do help fast-track the hiring process for new candidates so that your business has a backup plan if you're short of talent.

Using complete payroll and HR services, new hires can complete onboarding digitally, including filing tax forms and setting up their direct deposit before their first shift. Employees can be productive right away, allowing you to spend more time training and building skills for them instead of spending time on repetitive back-office tasks.

Will this help reduce the time I spend on payroll each week?

Most clients across industries reduce payroll processing time significantly. Accessible tools, error-checking technology, and an AI auditing tool can help you save time from correcting mistakes, helping you ensure more accuracy each time you run payroll.
