Paying employees is one of the most significant expenses for any company. Employers are required to withhold and pay various payroll taxes, both from the employees’ wages and as additional employer liabilities.

This webinar by payroll expert Debbi Cash, CPP aims to demystify payroll tax withholding, offering detailed insights into what must be withheld from employees' paychecks, how to determine these amounts, and how these responsibilities evolve as your business grows.
