How can businesses benefit form MCM's payroll Services?+
Businesses can have everything in 1 system. Employees onboard and are paid in the same system. Businesses can pay for add-on service of a fractional HR support or run it in house.
What’s the difference between MCM’s payroll service and ROBAL? +
MCM’s payroll service makes us the employer of record for your temporary/project staff – we handle everything, you get one bill. ROBAL + MCM Fractional CHRO lets you be the employer of record (your FEIN) while we handle the reporting, bank files, 941s, and unemployment documents – you pay your people directly from your bank account. ROBAL standalone (launching Oct 1, 2026) is a self‑service payroll platform.
Why would I use MCM as employer of record instead of just hiring directly? +
Avoid onboarding overhead, unemployment claim risk, and the high cost of adding workers to your rich benefit plans. Our markup is often less than the benefits cost alone – plus we manage payroll, workers’ comp, and compliance.
What is ROBAL + MCM Fractional CHRO? +
You stay the employer of record. We provide the full HR back office – onboarding, payroll file generation, tax form preparation (941s, unemployment). You send the funds through your own bank (as late as Thursday for a Friday payday). No more floating payroll for three days.
When can I use ROBAL by itself? +
Standalone ROBAL (myrobal.com) launches October 1, 2026. The new version (V2) will be shown starting August 2026. Contact us to get on the early access list.
Does MCM handle workers' comp and unemployment if I use the employer‑of‑record model? +
Yes – for all temp and temp‑to‑hire associates where MCM is EOR, we fully manage workers’ comp, unemployment insurance, tax withholding, and all compliance. For the ROBAL + Fractional CHRO model (your FEIN), we generate the reports and forms, but you file them.
