Payroll Statement
Your payslip is a legal document — every line should add up.
Payroll statements detail every deduction, withholding, and benefit calculation. Errors are more common than most employees realise, and some deductions may be unauthorised. BrieflyGo checks every line for accuracy and legal compliance.
What BrieflyGo checks
- Gross earnings vs net pay reconciliation
- Tax withholding accuracy (FICA, federal, state)
- Voluntary vs mandatory deductions
- Holiday pay, overtime and shift premium calculations
- Benefit deduction alignment with enrollment

What risks are detected
Unauthorised deductions
Employers cannot deduct money for equipment damage, cash shortages, or training costs in many states.
Overtime miscalculation
Non-exempt employees are legally entitled to 1.5× for hours over 40 — common errors cost workers thousands.
Incorrect tax withholding
Under-withholding creates a surprise tax bill; over-withholding is an interest-free loan to the government.
Benefit deduction errors
Deductions continuing after benefit cancellation, or wrong tier deducted for health plan elections.
