DETAILS:
Nearly every state has requirements for new hire notifications, covering topics such as wages, sick leave, commissions, pregnancy accommodations and gender equity to name a few. As the list keeps growing, multistate employers are tasked with keeping forms up-to-date and readily available – on top of proving that the notifications were provided to each hire. No easy task, it's become increasingly apparent that employers need a tool to help manage any associated compliance needs.

During this session, Julia Bailey, senior director, Product Management for Equifax Workforce Solutions, will demonstrate the latest solution for state-level new hire notification compliance and will outline the methods that make this tool highly effective. In addition, Bailey will address handling forms for states that don't provide templates as well as those that do. She will also cover a number of state-level nuances related to the notifications. Bailey will provide background into the developments that are driving the need for automated processes to handle new hire notifications, including increased litigation, states that have instituted fines and penalties for failure to present forms, and potential liability even in states without formal fines and penalties in place. Session attendees will gain an understanding of the latest state trends as well as actionable insights that can help their organization maintain a compliant process when updating new hire packets.

Attendees: Business leaders, HR and compliance professionals interested in learning how Equifax Workforce Solutions can help their organization manage multi-state compliance needs for new hires are encouraged to attend this informative presentation.

This session is part of a series of educational webinars presented by Equifax Workforce Solutions.
