Overview of the webinar

Plowing through the many rules regarding taxable, non-taxable, and pre-tax deductions and earnings is challenging. We’ll help you calculate base to gross wages for multiple scenarios. This webinar will help you respond to the employee who can’t understand why his/her rate is $1,000 per pay period and the paystub says, “Taxable Gross=$920.00”. Do you pay hourly employees with separate hourly rates for different jobs? Do you pay employees in a state that allows pre-tax deductions? Or are you in a state that doesn’t allow pretax deductions?  

Who should attend?

  • Payroll Associate
  • Payroll Supervisor
  • Payroll Teams

Why should you attend?

This webinar can help you pay these employees correctly every time. Even if you use a payroll vendor, your team should always know how to calculate wages, to verify calculations are correct. Once you pass the “Gross” hurdle and have captured the taxable gross, you can move on to the gross-to-net calculation, which will highlight voluntary deductions, the amounts available for such deductions, and net pay.
