Payroll Taxes and Employees Tax Administration

Payroll sits where employment law, benefits and tax collection meet, and errors repeat every month until someone finds them. Employees tax on remuneration, fringe benefit valuation principles, allowances and reimbursements, statutory levies, and the reconciliation process employers are expected to follow.
