Payroll in Fredericton

What a Fredericton payroll actually looks like

Fredericton has about 63,000 people, and provincial government puts more of them on a payroll than anything else, with post-secondary education 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 Fredericton pay run behaves is this: the capital's payroll is largely salaried, with the academic year setting the rhythm for a good part of it — 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 Fredericton

New Brunswick Day is a statutory holiday in New Brunswick. 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 Fredericton — provincial government 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 New Brunswick Employment Standards before you rely on it for a pay run.

Questions

Payroll in Fredericton — questions

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

In New Brunswick the first Monday in August is New Brunswick Day. It is a statutory holiday in New Brunswick, 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 provincial government payroll in Fredericton?

Yes. Provincial government is one of the larger employers of people in Fredericton, and the things that go with it — the capital's payroll is largely salaried, with the academic year setting the rhythm for a good part of it — 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 New Brunswick payroll deductions correctly?

Yes. Payroll for Fredericton employees uses the CRA's T4127 formulas: CPP, CPP2, EI, federal tax and New Brunswick tax with TD1NB claims, updated every January and July.

How much does payroll software cost in Fredericton?

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 Fredericton 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.
