Going green is something that individuals and companies are striving to do today, and Priority Pay Payroll can make it easy and cost-efficient for your company to do it, too.

You won’t use paper and ink on payroll, and that savings adds up over time.
But if you choose paperless payroll with Priority Pay Payroll, the use of all that paper and ink isn’t simply transferred somewhere else.

Priority Pay Payroll provides check stock for you to print employee paychecks right in your office, and because all of the stubs and documents are emailed as well you can pick and choose which you need to print. This lets you print only what’s necessary and eliminates unneeded paper and ink waste.
Many companies today go green by trying to use less paper, use both sides of paper for things that will just be thrown away, and by recycling paper. Recycling is definitely a step in the right direction, but it still has drawbacks when compared to a system like Priority Pay Payroll’s paperless payroll. First, the trees to make the paper still have to be cut down. Recycling doesn’t stop the initial loss of trees or the pollution that results during the paper manufacturing.
And though it does save many trees because the paper is recycle, limiting the need for more trees to be cut down, the recycling factories still contribute some pollution. And much more new paper than recycled is purchased. So while it helps, paperless payroll from Priority Pay Payroll is a better solution because there’s no initial output of paper and the pollution necessary to manufacture and recycle it.
Also, printer toner and ink are special environmental hazards that need to be recycled. This recycling creates pollution, as does the fact that despite manufacturer’s pleas for people to return these things for recycling, many still end up in landfills leaching dangerous toxins into the ground. Paperless payroll from Priority Pay Payroll drastically cuts down on the amount of ink used. It also cuts down on the wear and tear on printers, prolonging their life and seeing fewer end up in landfills.
Another way paperless payroll helps your company go green is that since all the documents are mailed to you, they’re not sent by UPS as paper checks are. This saves on gas and the pollution that burning it creates. And if you want to go even greener and eliminate the need to even print checks, you can choose direct deposit along with your Priority Pay Payroll paperless payroll. This helps the environment even more while offering your employees a convenient service.
