7(k) overtime is hard
Pay groups support 7–28 day work periods, shift-change start times, and thresholds like 212 hours in 28 days.
Fire/EMS payroll records
Payroll New
Payroll collects Fire/EMS time, applies your pay rules, and calculates gross and net pay using FLSA §7(k) work periods and the correct regular rate — with the arithmetic behind every figure. Runs are reviewed, approved, and finalized, members read statements under My Pay, and you export a file for the provider that already pays your people.

What we solve
Payroll replaces scattered work with one accountable workflow.
FLSA §7(k) work periods, pay rules, explained gross-to-net, run approvals, pay statements, and export files for your payroll provider.
Incentive pay skews overtime
Premiums such as paramedic or longevity pay are blended into the regular rate before overtime.
Nobody can explain a paycheck
Every earnings, tax, deduction, and garnishment line carries a readable formula.
Switching systems mid-year is risky
Import employees, rates, and year-to-date balances with a review step before anything is saved.
How it works
From setup to a record your department can trust.
Each step hands its context to the next instead of sending people back to a spreadsheet, inbox, or paper form.
Collect time
Pull completed Time Clock punches or enter time by hand.
Approve time
Only approved time is paid; issues surface as warnings or blocking exceptions.
Calculate and approve
Apply pay rules, calculate gross and net, and approve — optionally with a second approver.
Finalize and export
Freeze the run, publish PDF statements, and export CSV or TSV for your provider.

Questions
Payroll FAQ
Does Station Clipboard pay our employees?
No. Payroll records and explains pay; your existing provider still moves the money. You export a file for them.
Are tax tables built in?
No. Your administrator enters and confirms each year’s tax figures before they are used.
Do we need Time Clock?
No. Payroll works with Time Clock, with time entered by hand, or alongside another time system.
