What we need to know about your Pandemic Plan
As all of you are aware, these are challenging times. With the increasing spread of the pandemic, all businesses are finding themselves impacted with staff absent from work. With this in mind, we wanted to share with your how we are managing our staffing and what you may need to consider as we move forward to ensure we can continue to meet your deadlines.What are we doing
- We work as teams (in our case we call them Squads) so there are multiple people who are aware of your books to assist as much as possible
- We work out of multiple locations so that minimizes our risk
- We have strict Covid protocols to do our best to stay healthy
How we will prioritize if needed
We are dedicated to making every effort to continue to meet your deadlines. Should all efforts fail, here is how we intend to prioritize:
- Payroll processing and Source Deduction payments
- Bill Payments (telpay)
- T4’s / T4A’s, etc.
- GST / HST / PST
- Year End preparations
- Non-Profits – funder proposals. This priority may shift up depending on the flexibility of the funder
What we need from you
- Who is your backup if you become unavailable? Please let us know who you have in place for the following, and any other critical financial activities:
- Payroll?
- Payables?
- Alternate signing officers?
- Other?
