Course Lessons |  | Lesson 1: Introduction to PayrollThe payroll staff is a vitally important part of any large company. It has an important part to play in the record-keeping that is vital in a major company with lots of employees. | Lesson 2: Record-keepingThe payroll department of each business is charged with the responsibility of keeping a vast range of records on the company's workforce. | Lesson 3: Employee RecordsEvery company needs to record information on its employees. The importance of keeping full, relevant information on its employees is essential for any company. | Lesson 4: Salary PaymentsPaying employees has become a far more streamlined process in recent years, with the option for companies to transfer payments electronically to their workforce by means of automated payments. | Lesson 5: DeductionsThere are certain standard deductions that will make their way onto all pay stubs, and as many again that appear on almost all of them. Non-mandatory deductions from a paycheck are more usually called "benefits." | Lesson 6: Pay StubsPay stubs are a major part of the record-keeping process for any company with a payroll, and they should also be part of any employee's records. | Lesson 7: Tax ConsiderationsThere is a range of factors that govern how much tax each individual will pay. As a payroll professional, one of your responsibilities will be calculating how much tax employees must pay on their earnings.
| Lesson 8: Dealing With Outside ContractorsBecause of the nature of consulting work, compensation for consultants is a great deal more flexible in terms of payments and governing rules than everyday salaried work, which must conform to a government standard. | Lesson 9: Sick and Maternity LeaveAllowing workers to take some time away from their job to deal with the priorities of caring for their family, recovering from an illness, or having a baby is profitable for a company. | Lesson 10: PensionsThe idea of a pension is to provide financial stability during retirement and, if workers have saved enough, to allow them to enjoy the years after they stop working for a living. | Lesson 11: Dealing with ErrorsPayroll departments are staffed by humans,just like any department of any business, and therefore errors will be made. | Lesson 12: Payroll SoftwareThe main way that a payroll department can ease its human workload is to invest in a quality software package. | Lesson 13: Employing Payroll SpecialistsA payroll department is only as good as the people who staff it. It is a business owner's decision how to address this need, and it is on the owner's instincts and preferences that he or she will base the decision. |
