Payroll in Barrie
What a Barrie payroll actually looks like
With about 150,000 people, Barrie is big enough that manufacturing and tourism and recreation need quite different pay runs, and small enough that one person often does both. That is the case BooksAuto is built for — several companies, each with its own pay schedule, from one login.
The detail that decides how a Barrie pay run behaves is this: a summer and winter recreation economy on top of year-round manufacturing gives the town two seasonal hiring peaks — so the year has a shape, and the payroll has to follow it — a crowd of hires in one quarter and a stack of records of employment in another, each one produced as the person leaves rather than in a scramble afterwards.
The August long weekend
The first Monday in August in Barrie
The Civic Holiday is not a public holiday under the Ministry of Labour (Employment Standards Act), so no public holiday pay is owed for it unless an employment contract or a collective agreement provides one. Plenty of Barrie employers close anyway and pay staff for the day — that is a choice, not a requirement. BooksAuto treats it as an ordinary working day until you add it as a company holiday, at which point it is paid the way you set it.
Locally this is less a question about a day off than about covering a busy weekend. With manufacturing among the largest employers in Barrie, a good share of staff work that Monday — so what matters is that the hours and any premium land on the stub correctly, which is what the pay codes are for.
Employment standards change. Confirm the current position with the Ministry of Labour (Employment Standards Act) before you rely on it for a pay run.

Questions
Payroll in Barrie — questions
Is the August long weekend a paid holiday for Barrie staff?
In Ontario the first Monday in August is the Civic Holiday. It is not a public holiday under the Ministry of Labour (Employment Standards Act), so no public holiday pay is owed for it unless an employment contract or collective agreement provides one. BooksAuto treats it as an ordinary working day unless you tell it otherwise, and you can add it as a company holiday if you give it to your staff.
Does BooksAuto suit manufacturing payroll in Barrie?
Yes. Manufacturing is one of the larger employers of people in Barrie, and the things that go with it — a summer and winter recreation economy on top of year-round manufacturing gives the town two seasonal hiring peaks — 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 Ontario payroll deductions correctly?
Yes. Payroll for Barrie employees uses the CRA's T4127 formulas: CPP, CPP2, EI, federal tax and Ontario tax with TD1ON claims, updated every January and July.
How much does payroll software cost in Barrie?
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 Barrie 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.
