Once a year your workers’ compensation insurer audits your payroll to set your premium, and the result depends entirely on your records: total payroll, how workers are classified, and what counts as subcontractor labor. Disorganized records almost always mean overpaying. Marion Tax Service prepares you for the audit.
We provide the clean, reconciled payroll reports the auditor needs, make sure workers are classified into the correct comp codes, and document subcontractor coverage — so your premium reflects reality, not guesswork.
What’s Included
Workers' comp audit support gets you ready and protects your premium:
- Clean, reconciled payroll reports for the audit period
- Correct job classification of employees into comp codes
- Separation of overtime and excludable pay where allowed
- Documentation of subcontractor insurance certificates
- Reconciliation of payroll to your tax filings for consistency
- Support and answers for the auditor’s questions
- Review of the audit results before you accept them
