Wages control account is an account used in a management or cost accounting system, to record both direct and indirect labour cost. Using the traditional T accounts, it obviously has two sides; debit and credit. Direct labour cost are creditted to the wages control account and has its corresponding entry in the work in progress control account(debitted). Indirect labour cost will also be creditted in the wages control account and the corresponding entry in the production overhead control account.
