Hall of Fame

The Payroll Hall of Fame virtually enshrines payroll professionals who have contributed greatly to the advancement of the payroll profession.

New honorees are inducted each year. Upon induction, an honoree is featured in the photo gallery for the award received. The inductee's name and photo link to an accomplishments page, listing the honoree's awards and other recognition.

If, in later years, an inductee receives other recognition qualifying for the Hall of Fame, those honors are noted on the individual's accomplishments page. In addition, the individual's name and photo will be displayed on the photo gallery page for the new award.
