Payroll deductions

[tmb]

What is the name of your state? Ohio

We own a small restaurant/tavern in a very small town. We currently have four employees. One of the employees have just joined us. We use the same checks to pay our vendors, utilities and employees. It is a very basic check system and we even handwrite the checks. It is the same system that the previous owner of 28 years used. The new employee wants to have a "stub" with the payroll deductions listed. We explained our check system but it did not change the employees stance.
We have provided, upon request, the indiviual employee earning records to any employee that has asked for them in the past and they always receive their W2's from our accountant at tax time.
The question is, is it a requirement that we provide this information weekly on a payroll stub? Do we have to change our check system?

You can get envelopes from you bank on which you list the gross amount and the deductions. Us them.

We checked our bank and they did not have envelopes like you mentioned. Anyone have any other suggestions?

Office Depot?

Have a stamp made up that will have all the categories that you need and then you can stamp the outside of their envelope and fill in the blanks.

Not that it makes any difference, because I DO think EVERY state should have a law requiring pay stubs (or the information in some format) with every wage payment, but, just so you know, Ohio doesn't.
