How Can It Simplify My Payroll?
If you’re thinking about the time it takes to run your payroll now, cut that time in half and then half again!
When it comes time to do payroll, Gusto will send you a reminder. It then leads you through a simplified process. The first step is to review your hourly and salaried employees. Next, Gusto offers a simple time tracking tool that allows your employees to log their time, even tracking time by project, to get the most accurate picture of their work. Gusto also enables you to pay your independent contractors as well! No need to switch between systems or tools; you can pay all your employees and partners in one place!
If you already use a different time tracking system, Gusto will most likely integrate with it anyway! Gusto integrates with some of our other favorite accounting technology platforms as well, including QuickBooks and Expensify.
After you’ve reviewed hours, you’ll take a look at your employees’ days off work. They can request, and you can approve right in the Gusto platform.
Once you’ve checked everything, you’re done! Gusto takes care of the rest, including deductions for insurance and payroll tax.
One of the essential benefits of Gusto is the automatic payroll tax process. Gusto automatically tracks, applies, and submits state, local, and federal taxes! In addition, the smart software automatically updates for new tax laws and notifies you of changes and tax credits!
Staying in compliance has never been easier.
