One of your biggest challenges as a Payroll professional is to find benchmarks and metrics that will be the most meaningful for your department and your organization.

Look no further. IOMA’s best-selling research report has just been updated and expanded and is now explained and interpreted live in this 90-minute audio conference with noted payroll expert and author of the study—Vicki Lambert.

This program will save you hours of time-consuming research and possibly hundreds (even thousands) of dollars on purchases of expensive reports and data that aren’t really appropriate to your organization’s payroll needs.

Register today, and you’ll get detailed reviews of more than a dozen of the key payroll benchmarks and metrics—plus exclusive new benchmarks on how automation affects cost of processing, efficiency and error rates—to help you make the best possible choice of how to improve and streamline your operations and set goals for 2009.

Step-by-step, this audio conference on payroll benchmarking will help you to home in on what you want to measure, based on your organization’s strategic goals. It’ll get you started on reviewing the benchmarks your peer organizations have to share, and then guide you to the best resources you can use to move forward.

You can do what other payroll professionals do to make your payroll department perform at a higher level. If you don’t have the answers or if you’re unsure how to get them, benchmarking can provide them.
