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.
