Workplaces are important because they determine how state and local taxes are handled for employees. Salaris automatically creates and assigns workplaces based on your SocialSchedules locations, so there’s no setup required.
What is a workplace?
A workplace is the physical location where an employee or contractor performs their job duties. Correctly assigning a workplace ensures compliance with:
State and local income tax withholding
Employer state and local tax obligations
State unemployment tax
Local employment tax requirements
Employees (and contractors) can be associated with multiple workplaces, representing the different locations they perform work at.
Primary workplace
Every employee must have a primary workplace defined to ensure payroll taxes are calculated correctly. Employees without a primary workplace assigned cannot be paid via Salaris.
