Course Description
Every payroll professional knows that they must ensure that all employees are paid accurately, that contracts and wage and hour laws are adhered to, and that each paycheck is taxed properly.
This must happen every time, and every payroll, without fail.
Add to this the Sarbanes Oxley Act requirements that all areas of accounting within a company should have well-documented policies and procedures - including payroll - and you've created a dilemma: how do I do it?
Learning Objectives:
