Punch to Paycheck

It’s National Payroll Week 2009! Not sure what it is?

Here’s what it’s not: A week during which anyone who processes payroll can take a vacation. Too bad.

Here’s what it is: The American Payroll Association’s campaign to educate 156 million wager earners about their paychecks and celebrate the payroll professionals who pay them.

The website is a great resource for learning about how to get the most of their paycheck with savings, retirement planning, managing child support payments, and other deductions. There are also (ahem!) a number of ideas for celebrating that special payroll professional in your life.

If you’re doing something to celebrate National Payroll Week, please share.We especially want to hear from our iEmployee customers. How has automated time and attendance made payroll easier for you? That’s worth celebrating!

PS: Don’t forget to join us on our new Facebook page! We want to build a community of payroll pros – and the people who love them – so we can share/commiserate about the highs and lows of processing payroll.

We’ve been following lots of you out there on Twitter – you’re hilarious! I hope we can get together online and learn a little more about each other. (http://twitter.com/iemployee
