Open enrollment season is here, and it doesn't end when employees make their selections.

Changes to health insurance, retirement contributions, HSAs, FSAs, and other benefits all need to be reflected accurately in payroll, usually starting with the first paycheck of the new year.

Miss an update, and you could be looking at incorrect deductions, frustrated employees, and time-consuming corrections.

A few tips:
βœ”οΈ Collect final elections before year-end payroll processing
βœ”οΈ Share benefit changes with your payroll provider early
βœ”οΈ Double-check the first January paycheck

October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month, and payroll is a favorite target for scammers.

Watch for these red flags:
🚩 An email asking to change an employee's direct deposit information
🚩 Urgent requests for W-2s or employee tax information
🚩 Messages from a "coworker" or "executive" that don't sound quite right
🚩 Links or attachments you weren't expecting

The simplest protection? Verify any payroll change request by phone or in person before acting on it.

FAQ of the Month: "How are year-end bonuses taxed?"

Bonuses are considered supplemental wages, which means they're taxable just like regular pay. For federal income tax, bonuses are often withheld at a flat rate (currently 22% for most bonuses), plus Social Security, Medicare, and any applicable state taxes.

That's why employees are sometimes surprised when their bonus check is smaller than expected.

A little planning goes a long way:
βœ”οΈ Decide on bonus amounts and timing early
βœ”οΈ Choose whether to pay bonuses separately or with regular payroll
βœ”οΈ Let employees know what to expect

Planning year-end bonuses? Our team is happy to help you get it right. Book a payroll checkup today to start the conversation!

Pay transparency isn't a trend anymore. It's becoming the law.

More states are requiring employers to disclose pay ranges in job postings, and job seekers increasingly expect to see them whether it's required or not.

For small business owners, that means taking a closer look at how roles are posted, how pay is structured, and how it's communicated to your team.

Not sure where your business stands? Our team can help you think through the payroll side of it. Book a payroll checkup today!

Here's a secret from the payroll world: the businesses that have a smooth January start preparing in September.

Waiting until December to think about year-end is how small issues become big headaches. Getting ahead of it looks like:

πŸ“‹ Verifying employee names, addresses, and SSNs now, so W-2s go out clean
🧾 Tracking contractor payments all year, so 1099s aren't a January scramble
πŸ’° Planning year-end bonuses early, including the tax withholding side
πŸ—‚ Reviewing benefits and deductions before open enrollment locks things in

Three months of small steps beats three weeks of chaos. Your January self will thank you.

FAQ of the Month: What actually happens if I make a payroll mistake?

It's one of the most common worries we hear from business owners, so let's talk about it honestly.

Depending on the mistake, consequences can include:

πŸ’Έ IRS penalties and interest for late or incorrect tax deposits
πŸ“„ Amended filings, which take time and often professional help
πŸ˜• Frustrated employees if paychecks are wrong or late
βš–οΈ State penalties for missed wage and hour requirements

Here's the good news: nearly all of it is preventable. Most payroll mistakes come from manual processes, missed deadline changes, or trying to juggle payroll alongside everything else on your plate.

That's exactly why a dedicated payroll partner exists. We catch the small stuff before it becomes the expensive stuff.

It's National Payroll Week, a national celebration of something most people never think about until it goes wrong: the paycheck.

Payday isn't just a transaction. It's a promise between an employer and every person on their team. It says: your work matters, and you can count on us.

Keeping that promise takes more than hitting "run payroll." It takes accurate calculations, correct withholdings, on-time tax filings, and someone paying attention to the details every single pay period.

That's the work we're proud to do for the businesses in our community. This week, we're celebrating everyone who makes payday happen.
