Benefits of Outsourcing Payroll and Tax Administration
Level of Accuracy
When it comes to payroll, accuracy is vitally important. Mistakes can be costly and have serious repercussions like penalties from the IRS for incorrect or late filings, not to mention dealing with irate employees. Severely botched filings can incur huge penalties that could set your business back and tarnish your reputation. New regulations introduced each year makes payroll processing more complicated than ever. Being compliant with a high level of accuracy is a valid reason for using a PEO’s resources and expertise.
Saving Time
Managing your payroll on your own robs you of the time that could be spent on more important tasks like marketing campaigns and making sales. This could be a major detriment to productivity and could potentially reduce business profits. Allowing a PEO to take care of everything relating to payroll will free up the time for more important business matters that benefit the company.
Saving Money
Small to medium sized companies, in particular, can benefit from outsourcing payroll administration as the activities and processes involved squander valuable employee resources that could be used elsewhere.
Heightened Security
Information leaks and network breaches have become alarmingly common and businesses have to be very careful with security. Information in the wrong hands can lead to serious problems like data tampering, identity theft, embezzlement and fraud which could take months and even years to resolve. PEO professionals understand security risks and have access to technologies that keep payroll information secure and safe, quickly responding to security alerts and addressing issues before they become a major threat.
With all the complications and complexities involved in payroll processing, outsourcing is becoming more and more essential for accurate reporting, saving time and money, and protecting financial information.
