Profile: The Los Angeles Chapter of American Payroll Association

The Los Angeles Chapter of the American Payroll Association (LAAPA), founded in 1982, is a non-profit organization consisting of dedicated payroll professionals throughout the Los Angeles area.

The organization is comprised of individual members and corporate members who in turn represent hundreds of businesses in the Los Angeles area, from the largest industrial firms to small emerging businesses.

Our goals are to increase the payroll professional's skill level through education, mutual support and to obtain recognition for payroll as it is practiced in today's business and legislative environments.

We take great pride in the achievements our organization has accomplished.  There have been marked changes in the perception of the payroll professional in the work place.  Through our involvement with governmental agencies we have improved the awareness of payroll issues.
