Read how Marka leveraged ADP’s industry-leading technology for WOTC screening to help remove the burden of manually screening applicants for WOTC. > “In the past, we weren’t necessarily screening every single applicant because we were using the paper packets, and a lot of them fell through the cracks. Just the other day, I pulled a report on screening compliance and we’ve seen a 30 percent increase in the past year. It took a few months for us to really start to see the increase, but we’re up to about 95 percent screening compliance, which is awesome. As a result, our credits will likely increase substantially as they are processed.” ![Marka Branson](/-/media/adp/resourcehub/images/testimonials/marka-branson.jpg?h=300&iar=0&w=300&rev=07531198fbeb427d85a069fd3bbaedc6&hash=752D6F60C307A717E9496ED85277FB94) Name Marka Branson Title Talent Management Compliance Manager Company United Supermarkets ## Challenges United Supermarkets faced: - Significant time spent manually tracking, reporting and filling in WOTC paperwork - Lack of integration across recruiting and tracking platforms ## How ADP helped: - [ADP SmartCompliance® Tax Credits](/what-we-offer/products/adp-smartcompliance/employment-tax-credits) module provides significant time savings through system integration and automated processes ## Read the testimonial [Download Now](/-/media/adp/resourcehub/pdf/united-supermarkets-testimonial.pdf?iar=0&rev=93fd227eb9774efbaf16807e731c2101&hash=116720E092707E2E165EA99882B76356) ## Recommended for you - [Payroll and HCM data migration tips](/resources/articles-and-insights/articles/p/payroll-and-hcm-data-migration-tips) - [Integrating compliance and HCM solutions](/resources/articles-and-insights/articles/c/compliance-partners-and-integrations) - [Workers’ compensation in Nevada: What employers need to know](/resources/articles-and-insights/articles/w/workers-compensation-insurance-nevada) ## Related resources - [ ![Payroll and HCM data migration tips](/-/media/adp/resourcehub/rh2/images/insight/thumb/compliance-exec-moving-to-cloud-thumb-586.jpg?h=294&iar=0&w=586&rev=9becb026286443b19bf7103c902dfdb1&hash=C114831F5451BF800D5F5F49FA08940F) Insight ### Payroll and HCM data migration tips Read Now ](/resources/articles-and-insights/articles/p/payroll-and-hcm-data-migration-tips) - [ Webinar 1 HRCI, 1 SHRM, 1 NASBA Maintaining Compliance ### Year-End Workforce Compliance Update: Practical Insights For 2027 Learn about key workforce compliance developments impacting employers across the United States and Canada.
