Bricklaying businesses need payroll software with timesheet functionalities or integration to capture accurate working hours, including regular pay, overtime, and days worked on public holidays. The software should also calculate PAYG withholding tax, SG contributions, and relevant state payroll tax.

Reporting tools can also make tax time easier. Make sure the software you choose generates reports for taxes, superannuation, and payslips.

You can pay your bricklaying employees through a few different methods:

• Direct deposit (EFT): Electronically transfer employees’ wages directly into their bank accounts. This option is safe and efficient, making it a standard across many industries.
• Prepaid payroll cards: These cards can be loaded with employees’ wages and used for purchases or ATM withdrawals. They can be helpful for managing cash flow or if some employees lack bank accounts.
• Cash payments: While less common due to security concerns and record-keeping challenges, cash payments might still be used in some situations.

Employers and owners of bricklaying businesses need to look out for the following tax forms:

• Taxable Payments Annual Report (TPAR): This report summarizes annual payments made to employees, including salary, wages, allowances, and super contributions. It’s submitted to the ATO.
• Payment Summary (PAYG Payment Summary): This form details each employee’s income tax withheld throughout the year and is provided to employees for their tax return.
• Superannuation Guarantee (SuperStream) Quarterly Report: This report details superannuation contributions made for employees to the ATO.

Payroll tax calculations depend on your state or territory and their payroll tax thresholds. If your business surpasses the threshold (e.g., $700,000 annually in Victoria), you’ll need to register for payroll tax and calculate the amount owed based on your total wages paid. Specific payroll tax rates and calculation methods vary by state/territory, so consulting a registered tax agent or the relevant state revenue office is recommended.

Payroller is an STP-enabled payroll-only software that automatically submits payroll information to the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) – through a secure cloud network – whenever you perform a payrun. Payroller helps you to track, manage and record your payroll while safely sharing that information (and staying compliant) with the ATO.

As a truly one-stop payroll solution, you can manage staff roster, invite your accountant, bookkeeper or BAS agent and even make Super contribution (Beam) on Payroller.
