Hot Topics in Payroll 2018

Why Should You Attend:

Payroll is often a fast-paced profession when it comes to regulations and decision making. A normal day can be turned upside down when the Department of Labor (DOL) broadcasts a new interpretation of a 75-year old law, or perhaps another entity passed a sick leave ordinance. You need the info on it now! Or maybe you realize that the correct FICA taxes weren’t collected on the employee you terminated last week. You have to fix this now! But how? Join us to learn what the Hot Topics are now in payroll and how to deal with them!

Areas Covered in the Webinar:

• Salary level test—What is the latest situation from the DOL on the old Obama lawsuit and the new RFI from the Trump Administration for exempt employees and how it has impacted the states?
• Economic realities test—The latest interpretation by the DOL on this 75 year old law. Which states have signed up to find or prevent employee misclassification?
• Sick leave laws—Who has passed one? Who is now prevented from passing one?
• Mailing paychecks—If I mail the employee’s regular paycheck when is he considered paid? When I mail it or when he gets it?
• Using FIT to pay for FICA on terminated employees—failed to withhold FICA on a fringe benefit and the employee is now terminated, can I just take it from FIT?
• Deceased employee wages including child support—Does child support come out of a deceased employee’s wages? What taxes must be withheld? What do I report in year of death as opposed to the year after death?
• Payday loans or voluntary wage assignments: if we get one, do we have to honor it? What if the employee doesn’t want us to?

Who Will Benefit:

• Payroll Professionals
• Human Resources
• Accounting Personnel
• Business Owners
• Lawmakers
• Attorneys, or any individual or entity that must be fully prepared to successfully navigate these seven hot topics in payroll
