As Steve has mentioned in his blogs, managing payroll can be expensive and time consuming.  Add to that the myriad of wage and hour laws, and payroll administration becomes a daunting task at best.  

 Did you know that . . .

 . . . some states require workers under 18 to obtain a work permit - others merely require proof of age (i.e. birth certificate or driver's license)?

 . . . some states require a notice period before an employee's wages can be changed?

 . . . all states restrict what an employer can deduct from an employee's paycheck?

 . . . some states' minimum wage is greater than the federal minimum wage?

 . . . some states require paid breaks?

. . . wage garnishments are covered by federal law; however, in some situations, state law may supercede the federal law?

 . . . states vary as to payment of wages after an employee leaves employment (when final wages are due; whether accrued, unused vacation time must be paid at termination; if it matters whether the termination was voluntary or involuntary)?

These are just a few of the issues employers must consider when it comes to payroll. The Human Resources and Payroll professionals at Management 2000 understand the complexity and interaction of state and federal wage and hour laws and can relieve employers from the burdensome task of payroll processing.
