Construction payroll software must be able to respond to the complex accounting and forms filing needs of construction companies. Between keeping both your clients and your employees happy, while also staying on top of the day-to-day operations and safety standards at your site, the last thing you have time for is to go 20 rounds with your software to take care of the office administration, paperwork, and forms filing.
To meet these challenges without losing your mind, you need a software forms filing solution that offers superior data management features. Discover a better way to import, export, secure, report, and file your company data with our W-2/1099 Forms Filer and payroll software.
This base software program speaks to one of the fundamental uncertainties tied to the construction industry: Accounting for those times and projects for which your business uses in-house employees or independent subcontractors. Likewise, the varied skill set of the construction business even leaves open the possibility that the same payee is classified as a W-2 employee for part of the year and a 1099 contractor during another part of the year.
Construction Payroll Software for State Filing Forms
And this is just the beginning. When we say we offer software support for all 50 states, DC,, this state-level software support can be especially important for construction firms. Many of the special cases for construction payroll software are applied to state filing forms. Unemployment and worker’s compensation insurance may not be directly tied to your payroll processing, but it’s still an integral part of business accounting for construction firms.

Ongoing Software Support
Often times, the construction industry itself must struggle with uncertainty in the marketplace, as well as continually shifting rules and regulations. Most recently, the Affordable Care Act has created its own ACA filing requirement for most companies with 50 or more employees. If your company falls under these guidelines, get it right the first time with our ACA Filer module.
