QBS - Simplifying HR, Benefiting Business

Payroll Administration

QBS is equipped to effectively manage all of your payroll needs and processes. We currently process payroll in 48 states. By handing off the administration of your payroll needs to us we enable you to do what you do best: run your business faster and more efficiently. You and your employees will have the ability to view your payroll information at anytime through our web-based system, print-out reports, view past check stubs, re-print W-2’s and more.

This past year we were able to negotiate a no “check cashing fee” with Wachovia/Wells Fargo from anywhere across the nation. So, whether your employees are account holders or not, they can walk into any Wachovia branch and have their payroll check cashed at no charge. QBS also offers direct deposit for your employees, if your employees do not have the availability for direct deposit, we offer a pay card thru Wachovia/Wells Fargo for no charge. Additionally, we are constantly seeking out new services that bring a true benefit to you and your employees.

If your plan is a COBRA eligible plan, we also offer COBRA administration.
