ADP, a leading provider of HR, payroll and benefits administration services, now offers its first app, RUN Powered by ADP mobile payroll, on the App Store.

First introduced in 2008 and hailed by PC Magazine as "exceedingly simple to understand and use," RUN has been continually enhanced with direct client feedback, bringing it to the point where business owners can now run payroll in just three seconds. The RUN App is available for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch, and allows business owners to take the ease and functionality of RUN wherever they go.

 "Within the next two years, we're going to see businesses spending 35 per cent of their IT budgets on mobile," says Gary Butler, ADP president and CEO. "The fact is, the definition of 'the office' is changing. With smarter devices and faster networks on our side, ADP continues to invest heavily in bringing our trusted solutions to clients wherever they choose to work."

A recent ADP Research Institute survey of small business owners nationwide indicates that small businesses are leading the way in this trend toward increased mobility. In fact, nearly all small business executives surveyed (90 per cent) indicated that they spend at least some time outside of the office for business, averaging nine hours a week or 23 per cent of a 40-hour work week. Of that 90 per cent, nearly 30 per cent indicated that time "on the go" is increasing.

With RUN, clients can:

•         Enter and review payroll information for employees and contractors.
•         Pay via checks or direct deposits.
•         Calculate earnings and deductions as well as federal, state and local taxes.
•         Review hours and earnings to confirm accuracy before payroll is processed.
•         Preview payroll liability and cash required, and confirm funds to be withdrawn.
•         Review reports from the current and previous periods in real time.

The RUN Powered by ADP® mobile payroll App is available for free from the App Store for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch or at www.itunes.com/appstore/.
