Certified Payrolls Information
Certified payroll functionality in CRL allows payrolls to be imported and tracked in a singular database. Various payroll components are calculated and checked in CRL, including pay rates, fringe benefits, hours worked, etc. There are three (3) methods to enter payrolls in CRL:
2.Excel Spreadsheet and Conversion – recommended for smaller companies with no payroll system (≤50 employees);
3.XML Export from your Company's Payroll System – Recommended and preferred method for importing payrolls; takes the longest to develop but is the quickest method to import once developed.The below resources may be used to develop an XML export from your payroll system. Limited access to a test environment of AWP CRL may be provided upon request to evaluate if the export developed from your payroll system is valid. If your company is using a bought payroll system (“off the shelf"), please provide them with the below resources:

Deanna, or Dee to her friends, has been a member of Mountaineer Contractor’s team for over 8 years. During her time, Dee has been primarily responsible for the day to day traffic control operations of their various paving projects. Dee did not come into the construction industry through traditional means. In her past life, while working as a bartender and cook, she had a regular customer that worked construction. While discussing a career that provided the benefits and retirement she was looking for, he recommended Dee join her local Labor Union.
“And the rest is history as they say. There is no time like the present to try a new career path in the construction industry. Whether you are attending college, vocational school or looking for a change in your current career, there is plenty of room for growth and opportunity in construction,” Dee said.
