State likely to audit UW payroll, benefits

A legislative committee is scheduled to hold a hearing today (Tuesday) to discuss mismanagement at the University of Wisconsin payroll and benefit processing. The nonpartisan Legislative Audit Bureau (LAB) is being asked to conduct a comprehensive review after an audit released earlier this month found the UW had made over-payments in the last two years for health insurance premiums and retirement benefits totaling $33 million.
