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 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
Primary workplace
Every employee must have a primary workplace defined to ensure payroll taxes are calculated correctly. Salaris automatically assigns a primary workplace during onboarding.
At present, Salaris only supports single-location businesses. For multi-location businesses, additional functionality will be needed in the future to allow companies to define a primary workplace if employees work across multiple locations.
