ROSELAND, N.J. — ADP®, a leading provider of human resource outsourcing, payroll services, tax and compliance services, benefits administration and integrated computing solutions for vehicle dealers, today announced that its popular payroll management platform for small businesses, RUN Powered by ADP®, is now also available for the RIM BlackBerry® OS smartphone operating platform, including the most recent BlackBerry OS 7 release.
ADP clients using RUN Powered by ADP® can begin to manage and process payroll for their employees and contractors through their RIM BlackBerry mobile device by accessing the app from ADP.com.
“The addition of a BlackBerry OS-compatible version of ADP’s innovative payroll solution means that even more small business professionals can now manage their payroll quickly and securely on a handheld device, at any time from any location,” said Anish Rajparia, president of ADP’s Small Business Services.
RUN Powered by ADP satisfies the demand of an increasingly mobile workforce. According to a 2010 nationwide survey conducted by ADP Research Institute, a specialized group within ADP, small businesses are leading the trend toward increased mobility. The survey showed that 90 percent of small business executives spend at least some time outside of the office for business, averaging nine hours a week or 23 percent of a 40-hour work week. Additionally, one third of that 90 percent indicated that time “on the go” is increasing.
Furthering its commitment to technology innovation, ADP’s secure and easy-to-use mobile payroll management application is also available for smartphones operating on the Android™ platform and for iPhones® and can be downloaded from the Android Market and the App Store, respectively.
More than 120,000 of ADP’s small business clients are now using the RUN Powered by ADP online platform, which helps to reduce risk by assisting them with best practices for HR compliance, including employee policy handbooks, hiring guidelines and employment law tips and alerts.
Today, with RUN Powered by ADP payroll’s secure mobile payroll system now available on all three major smartphone operating platforms, small businesses can conveniently manage real-time payroll, run reports and preview payroll processing to ensure accuracy — all from an intuitive and easy-to-use mobile application.
