Does 7shifts assume liability for the calculation of taxes?

Question

Does 7shifts handle all tax liability for payroll calculations?

Answer

No. Although employers authorize 7shifts to file payroll tax returns and payments, the employer remains responsible for ensuring all filings are accurate and submitted on time. Tax authorities hold employers accountable for the timely filing of employment tax returns, the accuracy of those returns, and the timely payment of employment taxes for employees.

Why This Happens

Tax agencies require that the business owner or employer maintains final responsibility for their tax obligations. While 7shifts Payroll facilitates the process, the legal liability for compliance remains with the employer.
