Certified payroll is mandatory, recurring, and still brutally manual for most small subs.
Small specialty subcontractors doing public-work jobs in New York and New Jersey are legally required to submit certified payroll every week a covered job has activity. The federal WH-347 form has always been the standard. New York and New Jersey portal workflows now add more structured export and tracking work.
Most small subs are not doing this with software built for the job. They export from payroll systems, manually reformat spreadsheets, fill out certified payroll forms, and re-enter submission records by hand.
WageDocket is built to close that gap for the 5-50 employee specialty sub: electrical, concrete, paving, masonry, HVAC, utility, and other public-works contractors that need reliable weekly certified payroll records.
