Listen "Payroll in the United States"
Episode Synopsis
With a gross domestic product of just over 28 trillion U.S. dollars, the United States continues to hold the title of the world’s largest economy. However, businesses coming to the United States must be aware of the fact that its 50 states effectively operate like 50 separate countries, each with its own labor laws, taxation requirements, and regulations. This can make compliance a bit tricky for multinationals, especially when employing people across various states.We’re joined by ADP experts Dawn Wautier and Chris Acostandei as they guide us through common compliance pitfalls and explain what employers need to keep in mind when employing people across various states. We’ll also cover how healthcare benefits and retirement plans work in the U.S., and discuss how ADP’s team handles frequent legal changes, a common phenomenon in the country. We also speak to April, a nurse who lives in Florida but works in California, about the bureaucratic and financial challenges she faces when navigating her working arrangement.TimestampsIntro [00:07]The US: 50 states, 50 separate jurisdictions [04:01]Geographical distribution of industry sectors [06:17]Managing payroll in a complex legal landscape [08:01]Advice for starting a business in the US [10:12]April’s story [14:00]Managing employees across state lines [20:26]How ADP is helping clients stay compliant [24:35]Healthcare and pensions in the US [27:30]What's exciting about payroll in the US?
