Offering your employees a retirement plan, such as a payroll deduction IRA, a SIMPLE (Savings Incentive Match for Employees) IRA or a traditional 401(k) plan, can be a great employment benefit for your employees and your business. However, a retirement plan also requires certain responsibilities – including timely deposits of employee contributions. That is one reason entrepreneurs without a human resources department look to The Payroll Department to provide payroll services.

Church Payroll is Not Simply Tax Exempt

Posted by Elaine on July 30, 2013

A general misconception is that churches don’t have to worry about taxes – that they are exempt. As a payroll provider, the staff at The Payroll Department understands how much of a myth that is for churches. There are many different types of taxes on the state and federal levels and being a church actually is a complex situation. The church may be exempt from some taxes but not others and the tax code can vary from state to state. That’s where professional payroll services can be invaluable.

Payroll Provider Explains Why Employees Should Review Pay Stubs

Posted by Elaine on July 2, 2013

When I was 11 years old, I discovered pay stubs strewn about in my brother’s car. I’d never seen pay stubs before and they looked really official. I asked if they should be kept somewhere safe and he said they weren’t important – not like the cash in his pocket. Even then, his answer didn’t seem correct.

Now, I KNOW his answer wasn’t correct. Teresa Ray from The Payroll Department in Brownsburg understands the importance of pay stubs and why employees should review them every payroll period.
