Overview

A fringe report gives you a detailed breakdown of fringe costs—like union benefits, payroll taxes, workers’ comp, and more—across payroll, a project, or company. This report is especially valuable for productions that need to track true labor costs for budgeting, union reporting, or cost reconciliation.

The report includes key information such as:

  • Project and worker details

  • Gross wages and employer payroll taxes

  • Workers' compensation insurance

  • Union benefits (health, pension, annuity)

  • Fringe rates and total fringe costs

Fringe reports can created in the following file formats:

  • PDF

  • CSV
