Payroll On Us–Yes, Really!

Imagine covering payroll costs AND offsetting ERP expenses, simply by optimizing your payroll taxes.

Let’s talk numbers, efficiency, and smart strategy. As a business owner or CFO focused on improving your bottom line, you’re aware of the financial impact of expenses such as payroll and ERP systems. What if there was a way to turn a necessary expense into a strategic advantage? That’s where Workforce Go’s Payroll On Us program comes in.

This isn’t just another wellness perk; it’s a legitimate, compliant financial mechanism designed to generate immediate and recurring FICA tax savings for your business.

The Smart Financial Strategy Behind Payroll on Us

The core idea is brilliantly simple and impactful. By leveraging a compliant, no-net-cost benefit structure, Payroll On Us reduces your FICA tax liability. This reduction isn’t insignificant; it’s a continuous net savings of $321 per employee per year. For a company with around 200 employees, that could mean up to $65,000 in annual FICA tax savings!

Putting Your Tax Savings to Work

This is where the strategy really pays off. This program provides legitimate and compliant ways for SMBs to lower payroll taxes and offers a no net cost strategy for reducing business expenses. The FICA tax savings generated through the Payroll On Us program can be strategically used to:

  • Effectively Offset the Cost of Your Workforce Go Payroll Module. Think of it as those tax savings effectively covering your payroll software expense.
  • Significantly Reduce Your ERP Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). ERP systems are a major investment. Using FICA savings to cut into that overhead is a strategic financial planning method for mid-sized business payroll reduction and a powerful way to lower your ERP costs. 
  • Improve Your Bottom Line. By reducing significant line items like payroll and technology, you’re getting more financial value from payroll spending.

Employee Benefits That Don’t Increase Employer Costs

Beyond the significant employer benefits, employees also gain access to valuable health resources at no additional cost to the employer, like 24/7 telemedicine and health coaching, which can lead to reduced health-related expenses and potentially increase employee take-home pay by 2-5%. High participation rates in this program (averaging over 70%) mean these benefits are valued and the program’s financial outcomes are more readily achieved.
