Employee Pay Workshop:
Compliance Advice for 2019

Paying employees correctly is your most important – and legally risky – responsibility. So make it your New Year's resolution to get it right for every employee, every time.

You need to know answers to confusing issues like:

• Whether to eliminate paper paychecks and force employees into direct deposit
• When it is illegal to set a use-it-or-lose-it policy on vacation time
• The right of employees to demand their pay anytime they want
• What is the rule for delivering final paychecks for employees who quit, are fired or even those who die

Discover what you must do (and not do) to stay in compliance with federal and state pay laws with Employee Pay Workshop: Compliance Advice for 2019.

Important: This webinar recording is especially timely because state and federal regulators are taking a MUCH closer look these days at how you pay employees. Last year alone, the U.S. Department of Labor secured more than $304 million for employees in back pay – an all-time record for DOL enforcement. State regulators are racking up equally impressive hauls. And the Trump Administration will be making some big changes to payroll laws – you need to stay informed.

Use this recording as a checklist to make sure your pay policies are in total compliance with state and federal law. You will learn:

• When you can make direct deposit mandatory. Discover what the federal Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and state payday laws say about mandatory direct deposit policies. Learn five simple ways to encourage employees to voluntarily sign up for direct deposit, plus the three key traps that will sabotage your goal of 100% electronic pay.

• When you can deduct pay for breakage, cash shortages and discipline. Discover the eight indispensable policy pointers to keep your company toeing the legal line when making loss-related deductions from employees' pay.

• How you can legally pay employees using paycards. Don't make the mistake of other employers and become lawsuit bait when paying workers via payroll debit cards. Learn the specifics of the Federal Reserve's Regulation E, and the six steps to keep you and your paycard program out of court.

• How (and how quickly) you must pay departing workers. Learn the ins and outs of termination pay, including step-by-step instructions on creating a voluntary termination pay workflow, and the nine dos and don'ts for involuntary terminations.

• When you must pay for sick days. Find out what the new state and municipal mandatory paid sick day laws require. Hint: Even the smallest employers aren't off the hook for mandatory sick days. Government contractors and subcontractors beware: You must now provide certain employees with at least 7 days of sick leave per year.

• What's a "wage theft" law – and why you should care. Such laws place substantial burdens on employers and are the latest twist in state payday laws.

• Plus much more … including answers to your colleagues' questions from a true payroll expert, attorney Alice Gilman.

Even one payroll mistake can damage your standing in the office – and possibly your career. It's important to spot the holes in your employee pay compliance before the feds or state agencies do.
