Jackman Community Daycare gets peace of mind with Powerpay

Powerpay improves accuracy and compliance of non-profit's HR, payroll and compliance processes.
Jackman Community Daycare is a non-profit childcare center that has been an integral part of their school community for more than 30 years. They are licensed to provide care for 214 children ages 3-12. A Nursery School program gives sixteen 3-year-olds a head start to their school experience. Children are guided by skilled Registered Early Childhood Educators (RECEs) who establish a flexible program in an inclusive, supportive, and non-discriminatory environment.
Small businesses face payroll challenges
Many of the daycare’s staff are funded through different grants requiring different coding and processing. The hectic pace of the daycare and the desire to offer a safe and comfortable learning environment for the children need to be the focus — not the administrative tasks of paying employees. Ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements is critical, but can also be time-consuming and stress-inducing.
Ceridian Powerpay improves accuracy and compliance of Jackman’s HR, payroll and compliance processes through automated technologies. The payroll solution for small businesses offers access to knowledgeable payroll and tax resources. Powerpay includes seamless Year End services that enable the director to easily provide statements to her employees, the auditors and the City of Toronto. The payroll software also provides the director with peace-of-mind that her employees will be paid in a timely and accurate manner.
