A different approach
We offer a simplified, fairer, more transparent payroll model for recruitment agencies, their clients and workers.

A new, fair, more efficient way of doing things
Rockford Payroll brings a fresh perspective to the contingent worker marketplace, by addressing the most common pain points clients, recruitment agencies and contingent workers face – by removing the need for umbrella companies.
