Save time and money when you're processing payroll.

Businesses with several employees may need a solution that manages their employees’ time as well as their payroll. This often involves staying on top of extensive legislation and paperwork.

You will also receive assistance from ADP should you need to communicate with the Canada Revenue Agency. ADP will work directly with the agency on behalf of your business.
