Ask anyone in the organization what he or she thinks you do. The answer? “It is simple. Multiply my hours by my salary, subtract the tax and write a cheque”. If only it were that easy. When it comes to handling employee benefits, there is a lot to know. Is the benefit taxable? Non-taxable? Partially taxable? Handling payroll sounds like a simple proposition but NOT.
