About Payroll

Assignment Desk Payroll services eliminate the complexity and legal risk of paying production crew. We provide full W2 payroll processing for video production companies, agencies, and corporate clients who need to pay crew members compliantly without the overhead of setting up their own payroll infrastructure. Our payroll service covers tax withholding, workers' compensation, general liability, and all state and federal employment compliance. Production companies often face the challenge of hiring crew across multiple states with different tax laws, workers' compensation requirements, and employment regulations. Assignment Desk handles all of this through our established multi-state payroll infrastructure. We process timesheets, issue payments, file taxes, and maintain insurance coverage — giving you a single invoice and zero compliance risk. Whether you need payroll services for a single crew member on a one-day shoot or an entire production team across a multi-week, multi-state project, Assignment Desk Payroll scales to your needs. Our payroll team works with your production coordinators to ensure crew are paid accurately and on time, every time.
