Taxing Your Remote Workforce: Compliance Guidelines for Employers

Price: $ + applicable taxes

COVID-19 broke down the barriers to remote work, and most companies have adapted to operating without a centralized office.

While there are significant benefits to having a distributed workforce, it also raises complex compliance questions – particularly around taxation.

Identifying the jurisdiction where a remote employee owes state and local taxes is more complicated than ever. Employers need to track and manage taxation for distributed employees, understand what triggers nexus, and properly withhold taxes from employee pay.

Join us for this 60-minute program that will ensure your organization stays tax-compliant while working with your on-site and remote employees.

In this session, we’ll discuss:

When and how telecommuting workers can trigger nexus
State and local taxes that can be impacted by telecommuting
How to determine an employee's unemployment state vs. their withholding state
The consequences of non-compliance
And more!
