The holiday season – a time for joy, celebration, and, yes, a bit of extra planning!
But worry not; we've got your back. Let's dive into a quick guide on ensuring a seamless payroll process for both you and your fantastic team.
Most banks are closed for the holidays and you may need to process your payroll three (3) to five (5) working days before the desired pay date to pay employees using direct deposit. This is to ensure that all your employees and contractors are paid on time.
The table below shows the payroll schedule from a popular payroll processing software, Wagepoint. You can use it as a guide for your payroll processing dates.
There you have it – your friendly guide to navigating payroll during the 2023-2024 holidays.
After the holidays, you can follow your regular processing timelines for payroll.
Here's to a festive season filled with joy and gratitude! 🎄🌟
