HR Happy Hour 405 - Payroll Innovation and End of Year Preparation

Hosts: Trish McFarlane, Steve Boese

Guest: Tom Hammond, Vice President of Corporate Strategy and Product Management, Paychex

This week on the HR Happy Hour Show, Steve and Trish were joined by Tom Hammond of Paychex, to talk about innovation in Payroll technology and how HR and Payroll can prepare for end of year 2019 and new regulations coming in 2020. Some of the key points Tom discussed were how Paychex works with hundreds of thousands of small and medium sized businesses to understand their challenges, and delivers modern and innovative solutions to help them meet these challenges in Payroll, HR, Benefits and more. Self-service, advanced workflows, using analytics to make better people decisions, and delivering user friendly user experiences are just some of what HR and Payroll leaders and employees demand from modern HR tech, and we talked about how these can be delivered to organizations of all sizes.

Plus, Tom dove into some of the most important issues facing HR and Payroll leaders as we end 2019 and move into 2020, like the new form W4. You can learn more about these challenges at paychex.com/hrhappyhour.

Additionally, Steve and Trish talked about the Pantone Color of the Year for 2020 - "Classic Blue", aka "Paychex Blue".

This was a fun show, thanks so much to Tom for coming on the show.
