Canadian businesses face a change in their payroll processing schedules due to two significant observances in October 2023—National Day for Truth and Reconciliation on October 2nd, and Thanksgiving on October 9th.
These holidays are set to provide a moment of reflection and gratitude. However, as with any stat holiday, adjustments in payroll processing due to bank closures can prove a headache to business owners.
At PayEvo, we are dedicated to ensuring seamless pay runs during this period. Here’s what you need to know:
