Research Reports

Handling garnishments is one of the most difficult and complex issues you face as a payroll professional. You've got to be aware of all the current federal and state requirements—as well as any changes—before you process the order.

Make a mistake, and you could be faced with violations, fines and penalties. And, don’t think you're off the hook if you use a payroll service. You’re still responsible, not the service.

That's why you need a fully up-to-date resource that will guarantee you complete accuracy in following requirements, plus save you—and your staff—valuable time and energy.
