Three layers of work standard payroll providers were never built to handle, all in one product, configured for your environment, integrated with your systems.
Union rules. Reciprocity between locals. Multi-jurisdiction tax interactions. Prevailing wage determinations. Certified payroll requirements. Fringe contributions across health, welfare, pension, and apprenticeship funds. Step-in-grade progression. Piecework, commission, and milestone bonus calculations. Retroactive adjustments triggered by ratified contracts.
These are the calculations that have to happen before a payroll provider can do its job. RateSmith handles them, cites the source rule for each one, and feeds the result into your payroll system in the format it expects.
Certified payroll reporting (WH-347 and state equivalents). Labor cost allocation across jobs, phases, cost codes, and cost types. GL-ready output formatted for your chart of accounts. Union remittance reports. Compliance documentation. Audit trails that survive a Department of Labor review.
Standard payroll providers stop at the pay stub. RateSmith picks up where they stop.
