Wage Easy Payroll
An exciting software package designed to dramatically simplify employee administration using internet technology and smart processing techniques. At its heart is a unique award interpreter that transforms start and finish times into completed pay slips. This is the first in Australia to have a true generic award interpreter that can work with an unlimited range of employment conditions, the details of which can be directly loaded via the internet.
Wage Easy Payroll software is primarily aimed at small to very large businesses with employees who are paid by the hour. This type of employee is often associated with complex industrial award conditions that can lead to interpretation and pay slip calculation problems. However, with Wage Easy Payroll, it is not necessary to have any award knowledge to produce pay slips. All pay slip components, including overtime and any other penalty payments, are calculated automatically based on the hours of work entered in the time sheet. Complex pay slips can therefore be prepared in seconds, as the administration of tax, superannuation and union fees is also managed automatically. |
