# Work Locations

* * *

In Zoho Payroll, a **work location** refers to the physical address from which an employee operates.

Accurately setting up work locations is essential for the correct calculation of employer and employee contributions toward provincial and territorial taxes. Whether employees work from a company office or remotely, you must record their work locations to ensure proper tax withholding.

The following scenarios will help you better understand work locations and their tax implications:

**SCENARIO 1** Zylker has three offices within Ontario—Toronto, Ottawa, and Kingston. You must add each of these offices as separate work locations in Zoho Payroll.

**SCENARIO 2** Zylker Corp is registered in British Columbia and has two offices within the province: Vancouver and Surrey. Pat, a web developer, resides in Kelowna, British Columbia, and works remotely. Although you do not have an office in Kelowna, you must add Pat’s home address as a work location.

**SCENARIO 3** Christie, a designer, lives in Gatineau, Quebec, and commutes 30 minutes to work in Zylker Inc’s office in Ottawa, Ontario. Although she lives in Quebec, she must be associated with the Ontario work location and will be subject to Ontario’s tax regulations.
