Payroll & STP

Accurate payroll processing and Single Touch Payroll (STP) reporting for small businesses in Burwood and the Inner West.

Payroll must be correct every pay cycle — wages, PAYG withholding, superannuation, leave entitlements, and STP reporting all need to align with ATO requirements. With over 25 years’ experience as a CPA accountant, I ensure your payroll is processed accurately and your STP obligations are met on time.

Payroll errors can lead to:

  • Incorrect PAYG withholding
  • Superannuation underpayments
  • Employee disputes
  • STP reporting issues
