WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY

“When I'm on Powerpay and am about to submit payroll, the system prompts me to verify the data. I am able to review everything, which is now much easier than it used to be before using Powerpay.” 

Andrea Teather, CEO
Jane Goodall Institute of Canada

“My assistant was able to get a car loan without leaving the dealership. She was able to log into Powerpay on her phone and bring up her pay stubs, and the dealership took screenshots. They didn't have to ask for an employment letter because the record is there.”

Thomas Watson Jr., Owner
Guardsman Insurance

“I highly recommend the HR Advisory service, it's been exceptional for us. Having HR Advisory on-call has given me peace of mind around legal compliance. It has meant that we can do things by the book.”

Neil Summers, VP North American Operations

The HR Advisory service has been an outstanding adjunct to our business. We can come to e2r with any issue at any time, whether it’s offboarding, medical leaves, or deciphering new employment legislation.”

Your questions, answered

How does an assisted payroll service differ from using payroll software on my own?

Our assisted payroll services go beyond just providing software — they include expert support to handle payroll processing, tax filings, compliance, and issue resolution for you. Instead of managing calculations and tax deadlines and troubleshooting errors yourself, our team ensures everything runs smoothly while you focus on your business.

How does your assisted payroll solution ensure compliance and accuracy?

We combine our Powerpay payroll technology, trusted by over 46,000 small and medium-sized businesses in Canada, with expert oversight to ensure every payroll run is accurate and compliant. Our team stays up to date with federal and provincial tax laws, employment standards, and payroll best practices to help you minimize errors, prevent penalties, and keep your payroll in line with legal requirements.

How do you stay up to date with changing payroll laws and regulations?

Our teams actively participate in the National Payroll Institute (NPI) sub-committees and the Federal Government Relations Advisory Council (FGRAC). These partnerships provide early visibility into emerging legislative changes and compliance requirements — often before they are made public — allowing us to proactively adjust our processes as laws change and inform you of any updates that may affect your payroll.

Will I have a dedicated payroll specialist or account manager?

Yes, you’ll have a dedicated payroll specialist who understands your business and specific payroll requirements. Whether you need help with source deductions, ROEs, or year-end reporting, your payroll specialist is there to provide personalized support.

How will your assisted payroll services save me time?

Payroll involves more than data entry — it’s validating employee data, reviewing audit warnings, managing deductions, and staying on top of compliance. Year-end filings, records of employment (ROEs), and tax remittances add even more complexity. Our team handles these time-consuming tasks for you, reducing administrative burdens and ensuring payroll is accurate and compliant every time.
