Common construction payroll FAQs we get
When is the best time of year to migrate to a new construction payroll system?
Payroll systems can be switched any time of the year! Traditionally, a more seamless transition can be had at the end of a quarter or the end of the year. But Gusto (the platform we use and recommend!) makes transferring your payroll service easy any time.
What time tracking system do you recommend for general contractors and construction businesses?
Gusto provides a timecard feature and allows many different timecard applications to integrate. The best timecard solution is the one that is easy for your employees to use and that gives you the level of information you need.
Do you handle construction payroll taxes for me?
Gusto will collect payroll taxes with each payroll run. The taxes are remitted to the proper authorities and the reports are filed as required without you needing to lift a finger. Atlas Accounting Group keeps a watchful eye on reporting and helps resolve any issues with support.
Is it easy to switch from another provider?
Piece of cake. Atlas will access your previous payroll process or data or send you a list of what we need to get you all set up.
What is the setup process like?
Setup and implementation of Gusto can take as little as one week! Gusto allows employees to enter their own personal information and manage their own direct deposit. Information about historical wages and tax payments are also collected. We are here to help at any point!
