Abstract

This paper addresses a payroll error caused by the complacency of the personnel responsible for payroll preparation. The error resulted in a three-month discrepancy in one employee's compensation. The consequences of this oversight had direct financial implications for the employee, as he unknowingly received a lower salary than specified in his contract. The case highlights the significance of addressing procedural gaps in payroll preparation for improved accuracy and reliability. The significance of this study is that it underscores the importance of implementing measures to prevent such errors from recurring and fostering a workplace environment where employees feel empowered to voice concerns and seek resolution without fear of negative consequences. This study employs case analysis to contemplate appropriate solutions, decisions, or recommended courses of action.
