Payroll in Mission

What a Mission payroll actually looks like

Mission has about 42,000 people, and forestry puts more of them on a payroll than anything else, with agriculture next. For whoever keeps the books that usually means a few substantial employers and a long tail of small ones — different pay schedules and different pay codes, all landing on the same remittance deadline.

The detail that decides how a Mission pay run behaves is this: forestry and construction between them make a payroll of mostly hourly staff with variable weeks — so hourly and salaried staff end up on the same run, with overtime and premiums kept as their own pay codes.

The August long weekend

The first Monday in August in Mission

British Columbia Day is a statutory holiday in British Columbia. Eligible employees are owed public holiday pay, and BooksAuto works the entitlement out from what they earned in the weeks before it, shows it as its own line on the pay stub, and keeps it out of the hours that count towards overtime.

For most employers in Mission — forestry included — the practical question is just whether the Monday is paid and what goes on the stub. Set it once at the company level and every pay run after it follows the same rule.

Employment standards change. Confirm the current position with the Employment Standards Branch before you rely on it for a pay run.

Questions

Payroll in Mission — questions

Is the August long weekend a paid holiday for Mission staff?

In British Columbia the first Monday in August is British Columbia Day. It is a statutory holiday in British Columbia, so eligible employees are owed public holiday pay — BooksAuto works out the entitlement from their earnings in the weeks before it and shows it as its own line on the pay stub.

Does BooksAuto suit forestry payroll in Mission?

Yes. Forestry is one of the larger employers of people in Mission, and the things that go with it — forestry and construction between them make a payroll of mostly hourly staff with variable weeks — are handled rather than worked around: hourly and salaried staff on the same run, overtime and shift premiums as their own pay codes, and a record of employment produced the moment somebody leaves.

Does it calculate British Columbia payroll deductions correctly?

Yes. Payroll for Mission employees uses the CRA's T4127 formulas: CPP, CPP2, EI, federal tax and British Columbia tax with TD1BC claims, updated every January and July.

How much does payroll software cost in Mission?

The same everywhere in Canada: $10 per company per month for up to 10 employees, $25 for up to 20 and $45 with no limit — 50% off for your first year. Accounting firms pay $3 Payroll + $3 Bookkeeping per client per month.

Can I pay Mission employees by cheque or direct deposit?

Both. Print cheques on your pre-printed stock — numbered up or down to match the paper — or create a CPA-005 direct deposit file for your bank, and email pay stubs to every employee.
