Overview:

Covid-19 has made the situation a concern for many employers that previously didn’t have to worry.

Specifically, many employers are now having employees work from home. Employee homes are often not in the same state as the office in which they worked. Currently, our governments in many states are not allowing businesses to reopen under “normal” circumstances.

The result of all this is that many employers are choosing to make the temporary decision of “work from home” permanent. Most states agreed to suspend the normal rules on multistate employment to accommodate Covid-19 arrangements. The minute you decide to make work from home permanent invalidates the suspension.

So join Mark Schwartz in this important webinar. You will be fully versed in the requirements for workers in other states. His unique experience in handling employer requirements in all 50 states gives him the edge for training in this area.

Why you should Attend:
Employers should ask themselves:
  • Do I have workers who live in one state and work in another?
  • Do I have workers (such as a sales force) that travel routinely to fulfill their job duties?
  • Do I fully understand where a worker will be approved for unemployment insurance, and what will happen if I haven't paid UI tax in that state?
  • Do I know if an employee’s home state requires state income tax withholding. If so, are there minimum earnings or time requirements?
  • Do I know all of the State and Local taxes that differ from the state(s) I operate in?
  • Can I effectively advise workers on their requirements for filing for employee benefits, or for filing their personal income taxes?
  • Do we, as an organization, know all of the possible payroll and HR differences that occur among different states?

Areas Covered in the Session:
  • What are the normal (pre-Covid-19) rules on multistate workers
  • How has Covid-19 changed these rules for most employers
  • What is the 4 part test for paying UI tax to states
  • How do I determine which states I withhold SIT for
  • How do I manage a workforce who travels in multiple states
  • Which states have reciprocal agreements
  • Which states have a state income tax
  • Which states have local employment taxes
  • Is my payroll system up to date to fulfill all requirements
  • What other HR issues should I be concerned about

Who Will Benefit:
  • Payroll and HR Managers
  • Compensation and Hiring Staff
  • Finance and Operational Managers
  • Executive Staff
