Payroll for Burlington employers
Burlington employers include manufacturers and distributors along the QEW and 407, professional firms and health care practices, trades, and restaurants and shops downtown and in Aldershot. Many are established companies with steady teams, year-end bonuses and growing payrolls that approach the EHT exemption.

How we work with Burlington clients
Burlington employers are often established companies with steady teams and growing payrolls. As payroll grows, two things need watching: Employer Health Tax, once total Ontario payroll passes the exemption, and the timing and tax on year-end bonuses.
We run pay in QuickBooks Online Payroll or Wagepoint, remit to the CRA on schedule, file WSIB and EHT where they apply, and plan bonus timing with you. Manufacturers and distributors get shift premiums and overtime calculated from approved timesheets.
Federal and Ontario payroll rules
Every Burlington employer follows the same CRA rules on source deductions, remittance deadlines, T4s and ROEs, and the same Ontario rules on paydays, overtime, vacation pay, WSIB and Employer Health Tax. This year’s rates, deadlines and the Acts behind them are on our payroll services page.
Law: Income Tax Act s.153(1); Employment Standards Act, 2000.
Payroll pricing in Burlington
Payroll is quoted after consultation, as a fixed monthly fee based on your headcount, pay frequency and whether you need WSIB and EHT filing. The price only changes if your headcount, pay schedule or scope does. See what every engagement includes and plans and pricing.
