Abstract

This chapter deals with the logistical process of managing the monthly payroll. Paying employees the correct amount of money by the required date may seem like a simple exercise; however, as payroll structures become more complex processing, more time consuming, and more errors are made. Fundamental mistakes like continuing to pay salary or mandatory benefit to workers that have already left the company are surprisingly common. Such mistakes are financially damaging, but the consequences to the company can be even worse when it fails to pay the full amount owed to a valued staff member.
