Record Keeping, Data Gathering, Scheduling & More...

Do you have consistent timekeeping procedures? Are they well documented? What do you do when an employee doesn't comply with your procedures? How are you tracking overtime and allocating job codes?

Simply put, there's a lot that goes into maintaining compliance with timekeeping. And truth be told, staying compliant usually makes your life easier by preventing workplace issues. This checklist will set you straight.

I have worked with several payroll companies over the past 31 years and moving to Complete Payroll back in 2011 was one of my best decisions. It’s difficult to find an organization that is so dedicated to their clients but Complete Payroll never disappoints. I would highly recommend that everyone head over to Payroll Country. You’ll be glad you did.

In the current business climate, owning a small business is very difficult. Having a payroll company that can eliminate all my potential headaches and concerns in one facet of the business is so important. I cannot imagine using anyone other than Complete Payroll.
