Payroll is the transactional process through which compensation is transferred to employees and federal, state and local income and payroll taxes are withheld from employees’ checks. It is also though payroll that any benefits costs borne by employees are withheld. Although some employees receive actual checks for net pay, it is more common, especially among large organizations, for direct deposits to be made to employees’ bank accounts.
