Your Platform
More than just payroll
Did you know your platform does more than payroll? If you have been using a separate tool for timekeeping, benefits, or hiring, you may not need it. Those features are already built into your platform, and if you work with Payroll People, you may already have access to much of it without realizing.

Handle employee scheduling and time tracking in one connected place.
Hiring & onboarding
Bring on new team members and get them set up without the paper chase.
Benefits
Manage benefits like health insurance and retirement plans with less effort.
One organized team
Keep your whole workforce organized and visible in a single system.

Reminder
Potential penalty per employee reported with an invalid SOC code in Washington State.
Washington SOC code penalties are now active
If your business has employees working in Washington State, this update matters to you.
Washington State has ended its grace period for Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) code reporting. Effective now, the state is assessing a penalty of up to $250.00 per employee reported with an invalid SOC code.
What you need to do
Please review the SOC code on file for each Washington-based employee and confirm it is correct.
One important detail: Washington requires employers to use the O*NET OnLine occupation search tool to find the right code. The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) SOC Lookup Tool is not accepted for Washington reporting, so please do not use that one.
