Welcome to the Western Pennsylvania Chapter of payroll professionals
The Chapter's goal is to build a network of payroll professionals who can call on each other for assistance in our complex profession. The Chapter has been in existence since 1984 and usually meets the second Wednesday of March, May, July, September, and November at various locations in the Greater Pittsburgh region. The meetings start at noon with lunch followed by our speaker(s) with a short business meeting to end the afternoon. The Chapter invites anyone involved in the payroll, human resources, or tax profession to join us.
