With regards to payroll, the employer must take out any PAYG withholding tax from the employees’ salaries/wages as applicable – this is submitted to the ATO.
As well as payroll tax obligations business owners need to consider the physical procedure of actually paying your staff – calculating how much to pay them, recording the payments and the electronic transferring of the funds, which is the most common way to distribute pay.
