Companies that want to ensure compliance with Federal and State Laws  will learn how to break the final pay process down into five key steps:

Overview of the webinar

This webinar provides employers with concrete steps to take when paying employees who either quit their jobs or got fired. Despite the commonality of it, separations from employment often end up being a compliance challenge for employers. Employers are not required by federal law to give former employees their final paycheck immediately. Some states, however, may require immediate payment. If the regular payday for the last pay period an employee worked has passed and the employee has not been paid, the company is at risk for needless complaints and/or law suits. Learn what steps to take to avoid these embarrassing and costly situations.

Why should you attend?

Most states require employers to give departing employees their final paychecks in fairly short order -- sometimes on their last day of work. In some states, these time limits vary depending on whether the employee quit or was fired. Some states require employers to pay out accrued, unused vacation days with the final paycheck. Employers who want to avoid ending up in court facing hefty civil, and possibly criminal, penalties and fines and – in the worst case scenario – even jail time should attend this informative training.
