Do any of these apply to your business?
- I process my own payroll; it was easy in the beginning but now it’s overwhelming.
- Payroll is too confusing and time consuming.
- We occasionally pay payroll tax penalties.
- I’m not sure I am always following the most current withholding laws.
- I have employees but I’ve not taken the time to make an employee handbook.
- We do not have a written policy when dealing with things like sexual harassment, reprimands, discrimination, or equal opportunity employment.
- I do not have owner-only benefit package in place.
- I do not currently have a benefits package for my employees.
If so, maybe it is time to outsource this time consuming duty.
