Common reporting errors for employers

During the course of an audit, a Saskatchewan WCB auditor may discover errors in an employer’s reporting of the firm’s business activities and assessable earnings. The most common reporting errors resulting in an audit adjustment are:

• calculating assessable earnings
• calculating excess earnings
• prorating excess earnings
• reporting contractors
• reporting of director’s wages vs. optional personal coverage
