Pre-Employment Drug Testing Laws by State
The job market continues to be very tight, and companies are increasingly coming to terms with the fact that finding and hiring top talent isn’t as easy as it once was. With so many states (33 at last count) legalizing medical and/or recreational marijuana, the pros and cons of drug or alcohol testing job applicants has become something of a hot topic. Marijuana accounts for nearly half of all positive drug test results. The rate of marijuana positives in the general U.S. workforce increased nearly 8% in urine testing (2.6% in 2017 vs. 2.8% in 2018) and almost 17% since 2014. So, the question that you might be grappling with is: Do I really want to limit my talent pools by requiring that every prospective employee be tested? Because you...
EEO-1 Reporting FAQs
Employers covered by EEO-1 reporting requirements must submit 2017 & 2018 pay data to the EEOC by September 30, 2019. The new rule requires employers to accurately track and report the number of hours employees work, identify their employees’ earnings over a 12-month period and classify employees in one of 12 pay bands. The amount of additional data employers are required to provide is very significant. If you are unable to generate compensation, hours worked and pay bands into one report, it will create additional administrative work and could result in costly reporting errors. To help our customers navigate the new requirements, we've created this list of FAQs. Check out the resource below for more information to help you prepare....

State’s Laws for Paid Family Leave
When discussing family leave, most people’s conversations center around The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), which was enacted in 1993. FMLA applies to public employers and private employers who have 50 or more people. It lets eligible workers hang onto their insurance coverage and provides job protection while temporarily taking leave for up to 12 weeks in a 12-month period. Covered events for employees include the birth of a child, leaving work to care for a seriously ill family member, or recovery from a personal health condition. FMLA is good legislation, but the down side is that employees are not paid during the time they’re on leave. This situation can put a strain on finances for working families, and often results in an...

Take QuizWhat Compliance Means for Your Organization
Do you spend too much or too little time on compliance? The IRS estimates U.S. businesses spend a collective 2.8 billion hours a year on tax compliance alone. Add in the Department of Labor’s requirements for overtime and minimum wage as well as the Affordable Care Act’s tracking and reporting regulations and you’ve only just scratched the surface of compliance.
Naturally, being compliant is going to mean something different depending on the industry in which you work. Are you a medical facility who can’t allow licensing to lapse or perhaps a manufacturer with concerns about Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) law? What sort of training do you have in place to prevent employment discrimination and a subsequent EEOC lawsuit?
The right HR partner can offer your organization expert advice on how to mitigate compliance risk. Learn what potential violations should be on your radar and how to avoid them as well as how to maintain compliance through the employee lifecycle.
