Now, honestly, before I dove into deep-dling through some rather densely worded financial regulations last week (thanks, mostly to a very insistent Slack notification), I genuinely had no earthly idea what UHCC actually meant. I swear, for 40 years I've been reliably failing at most things and now this? Basically—and bear with me here—UHCC stands for the Unified Payroll and Accounts Payable Compliance Certificate. (I know! Already you think it sounds like a rejected title of a Philip Glass opera. It absolutely is. You’re feeling that, right?)

The whole point? To prevent… let me check my frantically scribbled notes... massive underreporting, tax evasion, and general corporate skullduggery relating to employee disbursement. The acronym itself is a Frankensteinian monstrosity of all the various compliance checkboxes it needs to cover. It's been built up over years through a slow, agonizing layering of legislation, amendments, and frankly, what I suspect are a great deal of lengthy committee meetings with beige-clad officials.
