Wagepoint, a leading provider of payroll software for small businesses (SMBs) across Canada, today launched unified Québec payroll compliance with complete platform functionality in both French and English. Businesses with employees in Québec no longer need a second payroll system or a manual process. Québec-specific requirements can now run inside the same workflow used across the rest of Canada.
Québec is one of Canada’s largest small-business markets, with more than 228,000 small employer businesses with 1 to 99 employees, according to the latest ISED Canada Key Small Business Statistics report. For many small businesses, Québec payroll has meant extra work for a long time. Québec is the only province that administers its own income tax, so employers remit separately to Revenu Québec on top of Canada Revenue Agency. As a result, businesses with staff in Québec and elsewhere in Canada often face duplicative efforts in managing separate provincial programs and contributions, including the Québec Pension Plan (QPP), Québec Parental Insurance Plan (QPIP) and Health Services Fund, with remittances handled through Revenu Québec.
That complexity compounds an already common problem: 75% of Canadian employees experience a payroll error in a given year, according to Deloitte and the National Payroll Institute. Wagepoint is built to close that gap for small businesses and for the accounting and bookkeeping firms who support them.
Québec payroll, built into the same workflow
Key Québec payroll requirements are now handled inside the platform, in the same workflow used in every other province:
- Revenu Québec remittances
- CNESST, Health Services Fund, QPP and QPP2, and QPIP calculations and remittances
- RL-1 reporting
- Québec statutory holiday pay using the 1/20 rule
- Québec income, deduction and benefit codes, with the option to build custom codes
- A complete workflow in English or French set at the user level
- Simple, comprehensive pricing with no add-on fees for accounting software integrations, reporting, timesheets, or multi-province support
Wagepoint has worked with small businesses in Québec — and the accounting and bookkeeping firms that serve them — for years, handling payroll realities not found anywhere else in Canada. This launch brings that work fully into the same platform used across the country in the language of choice for employers and employees alike.
For owners in retail, food service, health services and professional services, who run payroll themselves alongside everything else in the day, that means one system and one process no matter where their employees are. For multi-province accounting and bookkeeping firms, it means Québec clients can move onto the same platform as the rest of their client base, while still getting the Québec-specific functionality they need.
Québec payroll is included in Wagepoint at no additional cost.
