What is a Payroll Clerk?

Hello
A payroll clerk is a member of the payroll department who focuses on activities that help to organize data that is related to the process of providing compensation to employees of the company. As part of this process of handling the periodic payroll for the corporation, a payroll clerk often also is responsible for calculating and applying various deductions to the amount of compensation due to each employee. While the payroll process was once a completely manual task that involved a number of ledgers, most payroll clerks today utilize the services of payroll software.

The Payroll Clerk ensures that the workers within the firm are paid accurately and timely. They either work alone (if it's a small company) or are a member of a payroll department. Either way, their job is detail-oriented and requires a good working knowledge of payroll and its taxes.

Payroll clerks computer and record the earnings owed to each company employee on a computer and ensure employees are paid on time. This recording is known as posting.
