The Secrets of Managing Payroll
Get best-practice strategies and critical legal updates that will keep you out of court.
You can attend FREE with STAR12 membership - Get more info.
Program Description:
You Can’t Learn Payroll by Trial and
Error. The Consequences of Making a
Mistake Are Too Severe.
Case in point — one major retailer was recently ordered to pay over $33M in back wages for
payroll violations.
If you think this can’t happen to you, think again. If there’s one thing employees pay attention
to, it’s their pay. They want and deserve accuracy. If you make any mistake — no matter how
slight — it could cost you and your organization BIG in back wages, penalties, and maybe even
your job.
The Secrets of Managing Payroll is a revolutionary workshop designed to get you up-to-date
on the federal regulations that you have to address while doing your job. From garnishments
to child support to overtime to W-4s, you’ll learn it all here. Just look at some of the key
points of your agenda:
- How to handle the very latest changes in rules, regulations, and laws that
impact payroll
- Techniques for streamlining routine payroll tasks to get more done in less time
- Surprising court rulings concerning comp time, off-the-clock overtime, and more
- Tips for avoiding the most frequently made errors in W-2 processing
- How to handle different types of pay (incentives, commissions, etc.) and deductions
- Smart ideas for working more effectively with payroll service bureaus
Learn how to keep your cool with stress-busting tips for handling your
toughest payroll challenges
It’s never been more important to understand the ins and outs of payroll than right now.

This workshop gives you clear-cut answers for prioritizing your payroll obligations. You’ll
also get cost-saving tips ... learn how to handle supervisors who don’t understand employee
classifications ... overtime and more.
The updates on government rules and regulations alone are worth the price
of the workshop!
It would take you literally months to research all the information you’ll gain in just one day
away from the office. Your employer and your employees put their trust in you to handle
payroll accurately, efficiently, and to the letter of the law. You owe it to them — and more
importantly, to yourself — to make sure your payroll knowledge is absolutely
