Special report explains why governance of third-party payroll service providers is so important

The benefits of payroll outsourcing are clear — businesses can realize lower technology costs and reduce staff time devoted to repetitive and time-consuming tasks such as those associated with tax payments and return filing. In fact, with so much of the payroll infrastructure transferred to a third party, companies often tend to redirect or remove trained and experienced in-house staff who are vital to the oversight role.

In this special report, Ernst & Young LLP’s Employment Tax Advisory Services explains why it is important to oversee third-party employment tax outsourcing arrangements and to review tasks integral to the overall governance process.
