Payroll Compliance for Remote and Hybrid Employees

Managing the risks and rewards of remote payroll

In this 75-minute interactive online training, learn how to:

Comply with state withholding and income tax rules.
States’ relaxed withholding rules have long ended. What must you do to keep out of withholding and income tax trouble?
Smooth out the payday experience.
Discover the most efficient and legally smart way to handle remote pay.
Comply with state labor laws.
Learn the right way to track and pay hours, meals, and breaks for your remote staff.

Having employees working from different states will likely trigger unintended payroll liabilities — and that’s just the beginning of the headaches.

Remote and hybrid work are here to stay. But for payroll professionals, the reality of remote and hybrid work has created a host of evolving complexities and compliance risks.

It doesn’t matter if employees work across the country or only one or two days a week from home in different states. The odds are you’ll be liable to withhold and pay taxes in all of these states. One tax liability often leads to a host of others. Depending on state rules, you could also be on the hook for corporate, excise, and unemployment taxes. State minimum wage and wage payment laws present another surprise liability.

Are you prepared? Don’t get caught out of compliance. States, like the IRS, are unforgiving. And there’s no downside to states going after far-away employers.

In this new webinar training, learn the ins and outs of labor and tax laws when dealing with remote and hybrid workers. Discover how to track remote employees' time, comply with new payroll laws, and avoid penalties for failing to pay employees properly. Learn what you need to know to avoid surprises and fines later.

Agenda for Payroll Compliance for Remote and Hybrid Employees

Get in total compliance for remote payroll. Pinpoint the 10 factors that determine if you owe taxes for remote workers in their home states.
Breaks for remote workers. Understand the Department of Labor’s most recent guidance on break times for remote workers.
Use nexus, domicile, and residency to your company's advantage. Those key concepts could get your organization off the hook for personal and corporate income taxes in some states.
Develop winning strategies for tracking remote employees’ work time. If remote employees are nonexempt, you need a sure-fire way to track their time.
Discover the best way to pay. While electronic pay options (like direct deposit) are optimal for employees who aren’t in the office, state laws can throw up a huge hurdle.
Find out where you are liable for unemployment coverage. State unemployment taxes can be tricky. Learn the four tests to see if you must pay up.
Learn the advantages and pitfalls of reciprocity and "courtesy withholding.” In some states you can withhold income taxes for employees' states of residence. But it could also open your company to an array of state taxes.
Avoid the complications with hybrid arrangements. Which states’ laws apply when? Employees who work under hybrid arrangements present twice the compliance headaches.
