Comprehensive payroll solutions

Support, advisory and outsourcing services to help you achieve payroll confidence

Is solving payroll problems on your agenda?

Payroll reliability affects employee satisfaction, turnover and productivity, while compliance issues can lead to legal and financial repercussions. Achieving true payroll continuity means delivering that paycheck even when things outside your control threaten to derail the process. When you have a challenge in payroll, you want to trust that you have the most knowledgeable, experienced support team available.

RSM payroll consultants hold industry certifications, plus certifications in multiple payroll software platforms. If recent changes have left your payroll vulnerable, now is the time to make sure it is accurate, compliant, secure, documented and protected from disruptions.

Protect your payroll from personnel, compliance and security challenges

Payroll is an essential part of supporting the employee experience and the growth of your business.

Whether you are seeking help with regulatory and compliance issues, year-end preparation and completion, process documentation and optimization, merger and acquisition support, payroll tax audit and reconciliation, or temporary payroll coverage, RSM can curate a solution that makes sense for your business.

From preparation through tax compliance audit

It is never too early to start preparing to achieve a smooth year-end. If your organization has experienced changes such as merger, acquisition, remote or hybrid worker policy updates, or an HCM system transition, it’s a wise idea to engage an RSM payroll advisor to assist with year-end.

RSM payroll consultants perform year-end planning, and balance and audit year-end data to produce accurate W-2s, TL-4s and RL1s; validate quarterly and annual tax filings; and ensure no year-end tasks fall by the wayside. Engage with RSM to ensure your checklist is in order and to avoid costly penalties and time-consuming extra work.
