Off-cycle payments are payments of wages and benefits which are made outside of the regular payroll run. Some off-cycle payments are the result of errors, but many are due to bonus, retroactive, or termination payments. Whether the result of error or design, off-cycle payments cost time and money. This webinar will discuss proven methods to reduce uncertainty and minimize payroll costs.

  • Identification and control techniques to minimize avoidable off-cycle payments.
  • Termination pay using a checklist to minimize the need for subsequent checks
  • Best practices and strategies for dealing with off cycle payments

  • Building a business case for cost saving policy and procedural changes
  • How to get to the root causes of avoidable off-cycle payments.
