Online Payroll Software for Restaurants
The restaurant industry has many moving pieces. Staying on top of regulations, both taxes and safety, are key to business success. With all of the complexities involved with running a restaurant, there’s a good chance you are looking for some help, especially with your restaurant payroll.
The most common payroll items to be aware of when running a restaurant are minimum wage laws and properly paying tipped employees. It’s also important to note that most employees are going to be classified as non-exempt, which means they will be eligible for overtime wages as well.
