Payroll Services
Accurate. On time. Every pay period.
Payroll sounds simple until it isn't. One miscalculated deduction, one missed remittance deadline, one incorrect ROE — and you're dealing with employee frustration, CRA penalties, or both.
WelcomeWorks takes payroll off your plate entirely. We process your payroll accurately, remit on time, maintain proper records, and handle year-end reporting — so you can focus on your business.
Deductions, remittances, and filings — handled
From CPP, EI, and income tax to ROEs and year-end T4s, we track every deadline and keep your records clean and audit-ready — so a missed remittance never turns into a CRA penalty.

Why professional payroll is risk management
Ontario's Employment Standards Act governs pay frequency, vacation pay, overtime, public holidays, and termination entitlements. The Income Tax Act and Employment Insurance Act add federal obligations on top.
Professional payroll administration is not a luxury for businesses with employees. It's protection.
