Streamlined Payroll for Weehawken Township: Meeting New Jersey's Chapter 78 Standards

Using custom fields in Paychex Flex to store employee’s elected health plans and coverage levels, Paychex APIs to pull employee salaries, and custom tables to store health plan premiums and Chapter 78 contribution percentages, the Mindex platform performs logic that sets the appropriate deduction amount in each employee profile. The calculated deduction amount is then automatically applied during every payroll process.

To account for new employees or existing employee changes that would impact the calculation, such as a salary increase or change in coverage level from a qualifying event, the Mindex Integration Platform monitors the required data through Paychex APIs on a nightly basis. If a change is detected that requires an updated deduction calculation, the platform automatically uses the established logic to set an updated deduction amount in the employee profile to be used in the next payroll.
