OUR NEXT SEGMENT, THE FUTURE OF
WORK IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY ATP
EXPLORING THE DIGITAL
TRANSFORMATIONS THAT ARE
TRANSFORMING THE WORKPLACE AS
WE KNOW IT AS
WE HAVE ROCHE THE SUMMER MONTHS
A LOT OF EMPLOYEES ARE PUTTING
IN THEIR TIME OFF REQUEST BUT
WITH SO MANY DIFFERENT WORK
SCENARIOS, REMOTE HYBRID
OR IN PERSON TO PERSON IT
PRESENTS A WHOLE NEW SET OF
CHALLENGES FOR EMPLOYERS SO
JOINING US NOW TO DISCUSS IS
PETE ICEBERG VP GOVERNMENT
AFFAIRS AT 80 P
PETE THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR
BEING HERE WONDER IF CAN YOU
EXPLAIN HOW WORKPLACES WILL
HANDLE TIME
OFF POLICIES IN THIS POST COVID
ENVIRONMENT, ANY CHANGES THAT
WE'RE GOING TO BE SEEING.
>> SURE NANCY WHATS IS
IMPORTANT GENERALLY EMPLOYER
SHOULD HAVE VERY LIBERAL
POLICIES ARE TIME UP EARLY TO
COVID AND THAT IS LAST YEAR
2020 COVID BECAME SICK AND
FAMILY LEAVE WAS ACTUALLY A
MANDATORY USE OF SOLUTIONS
LESSON. I'VE LEARNED PLACE IS
PAID FOR BY THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT PALEY LEAVES
WERE DIAGNOSIS
TREATMENT OR BEING QUARANTINED
OR WERE CARING
FOR OTHERS. IN AMOUNTS 0.5
THOUSAND
HE NEEDS
TO TAKE TIME OUT FOR YOURSELF,
YOU KNOW $10,000 SECURE FOR
FAMILY MEMBERS FOR EXAMPLE, IF
YOUR WE'RE HOME BECAUSE THEIR
SCHOOLS ARE CLOSING CHOPPERS
BOATS THAT WAS ALL GOVERNMENT
THEY AND IN MARCH THE AMERICAN
RESCUE AND NOT EXTENDED THIS
TAX CREDIT, IT'S NO LONGER
MANY, BUT THERE'S A TAX BUT IT
WASN'T ENTIRELY BY THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IN EVERY SET
THOSE EMPLOYEES THAT EXHAUSTIVE
THOSE ANNOUNCE THAT I
MENTIONED. FOR PAID LEAVE IN
2020, WE'VE GOT TO BE BANK OF
PPE THROUGH SEPTEMBER
2021. IN FACT INCREASE THE
LEAVE HIM OUT FROM 10,000 TO
12,000. SO EMPLOYERS DON'T HAVE
TO OFFER
PAID THIS YEAR, TYPES AND
BARELY FUNDED IF THEY DO.
IT'S ALSO EASY FOR HIM TO TAKE
THAT CREDIT THINK BASICALLY
JUST REDUCE THE PAYROLL TAXES.
BY THE AMOUNT OF THIS WE
JUST PAID AND THAT'S WHAT THE
CRITICS ON THE IRS FORM 9.41,
SOME STATES HAVE BEEN ON PAID
LEAVE LAWS THAT APPLY HERE SUCH
AS CALIFORNIA NEW YORK.
>> YOU INTERESTED WITH THE
CONTINUED PUSH AROUND
VACCINATIONS WHAT CHANGES YOU
MAY HAVE SEEN YOU KNOW WITH
EMPLOYERS ALONG VACCINATION
TIME OFF.
>> THAT CHANGED TO RECENTLY AS
WELL FOR EXAMPLE OF THIS WAS
THE AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN ACT
AGAIN
IN MARCH EXPANDED THE REASONS
FOR LEAVING QUALIFIES FOR THIS
IMPORTANT TASK BUT IT
NOW COVERS TIME FOR
RESULTS OF A COVID TEST TIME
OFF TO GET EVEN EYES AND TIME
OUT TO RECOVER
IF THERE ARE ANY ILL EFFECTS
FROM MUSICIAN AGAIN IT'S EASY
FOR EMPLOYEES TAKE THE CREDIT
THEY THINK THOSE WAGES WERE
PERIODS OF
PUMPING LEAD AND SIMPLY APPLY
THE WAGE AMOUNTS AS A TAX
CREDIT AGAINST THE PAYROLL
TAXES.
>> SO I WONDER HOW DOES HOW
DOES IT
AFFECT EMPLOYEES. YOU KNOW
WARREN OUR MOTOR WORKING HYBRID
WORKING, YOU KNOW FROM HOME
PART-TIME.
>> THAT IS A VERY INTERESTING
QUESTION IS EVOLVING AS WE NOW
IN A REMOTE WORK HAS ENABLED
PEOPLE TO WORK
FROM ANYWHERE IN THE STATE AND
WORST CITIES FOR EXAMPLE, A LOT
OF FOLKS WHO ARE COMMUTING FROM
ACROSS STATE LINES TO THEIR
EMPLOYER AND THEY'VE BEEN
WORKING FROM HOME BUT IN A
DIFFERENT STATE. OTHERS NOW ARE
WE HAVE BEEN WORKING FROM HOME
IN A VACATION HOME THAT THEY
MAY HAVE OR THE YOUNG THE
THEIR PARENTS OR OTHER AND THE
RELATIVE SOME IN SOME OTHER
STATE SO SOME BILLS SEEM TO BE
A QUESTION START TO
RISE HERE. ONE OF THEM IS TAX
AND SOME EMPLOYEES MIGHT SEE
THEIR TAX WITHHOLDING CHANGE AS
EMPLOYERS ARE REQUIRED TO
RECOGNIZE THAT THEIR EMPLOYEES
ARE NOW WORKING IN A DIFFERENT
STATE. THERE ARE OTHER
QUESTIONS VERY BIG QUESTIONS
FROM PLAYERS, YOU KNOW FOR
EXAMPLE. THEY MIGHT HAVE TO
REGISTER IN A STATE IN WHICH
THEY HAVE A SINGLE EMPLOYEE
THAT'S NOT WORKING MAYBE IN
SORT OF GOING TO
HIS HOME EMPLOYER HAS NO
PRESENCE IN SORT OF THAT THEY
MIGHT HAVE TO REGISTER AS A
PLAYER AND SORT
OF THEM THAT MEANS THAT THEY
MAY HAVE TO THE CORPORATE TAXES
OR OTHER TAXES. AS
A RESULT. THERE ARE THE
QUESTIONS AS WELL, YOU KNOW FOR
EXAMPLE WAGE AND HOUR LAWS
WHICH YOU KNOW THE STATES
YOU'RE WORKING IN A DIFFERENT
STATE, THE WAGE AND HOUR LAWS
OF THAT STATE NOW APPLY IN THE
ANSWERS MAY VARY IF YOU'RE
THERE OCCASIONALLY, OR MAYBE 3
OR 4 DAYS A WEEK SO WE'RE
LOOKING INTO THAT RIGHT NOW
WE'RE WORKING WITH THE STATE
LEGISLATURES AND TAX
AUTHORITIES OF THE COMING
MONTHS TO US TO FIGURE OUT THE
ANSWERS TO THOSE QUESTIONS.
>> HE TOUCHED ON THIS A LITTLE
BIT JUST RIGHT THERE. BUT I
WONDER IN A BROADER SENSE, HOW
HAVE LABOR LAWS SHIFTED DURING
THE PANDEMIC.
>> YOU KNOW THEY REALLY
HAVEN'T AND THAT'S AN IMPORTANT
LABOR LAWS STILL APPLY EVEN
FROM A WORKING FROM
HOME ENVIRONMENT WHICH IS TOUGH
SO FOR EXAMPLE IN CALIFORNIA,
CALIFORNIA PLAYERS ARE REQUIRED
TO OFFER
MR. BREAKING NEW APPEARANCE
VERY SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS FOR
BREAKING THE APPEARANCE OF HOW
DO YOU DO THAT AND WORK FROM
HOME ENVIRONMENT. YOU CAN'T
IGNORE IT CANNOT DO
SO YOU KNOW IN PLAY
TIME-KEEPING SYSTEMS OR OTHER
SYSTEMS MIGHT BE ABLE TO PROMPT
PEOPLE A LOT ABOUT PERIODICALLY
THAT KIND OF THING OR YOU KNOW
MAYBE THE EMPLOYEES RELYING ON
DAILY AT THE STATION'S REMINDER
SOME SOMETHING LIKE THAT
THAT FOLKS ARE TAKING THOSE
BREAKS BUT COMPLIANCE WITH WAGE
AND
HOUR LAWS HAS IT CHANGED HANDS
COULD BE TOUGH TO ADMINISTER
THAT UNIT WORK FROM HOME
ENVIRONMENT.
>> WELL IN THAT SAME VEIN.
THE NEW RESEARCH
FINDS IT REMOTE WORKERS ARE
PUTTING IN MORE HOURS IN
PREPANDEMIC I MEAN I CAN ATTEST
TO THAT OVER THE PAST YEAR THAT
CERTAINLY WAS THE CASE FOR ME
YOU KNOW HOW CAN EMPLOYERS
MONITOR THIS MOVING FORWARD.
>> I CAN ATTEST TO THAT AS WELL
SO YEAH, VERY BIG REALLY YOU
KNOW FOR THAT ISSUE WAS FOR
KNIVES OF FOLKS FOR THOSE
ACTUALLY GETTING OVERTIME PAY
EMPLOYERS REALLY HAVE TO KEEP
CAREFUL TRACK OF WHEN THEIR
PEOPLE ARE ACTUALLY WORKING THE
OBVIOUS
EXAMPLE, THIS YOU KNOW YOU JUST
ANSWER SOME QUESTIONS ON YOUR
SMARTPHONE WERE
YOU KNOW DOING WHAT YOU'RE
DOING, BUT IT'S MAYBE OVER THE
WEEKEND, IT'S WHENEVER
CONVENIENT BUT THAT'S WORKING
EMPLOYERS ARE REALLY REQUIRED
TO KEEP TRACK OF WHEN EMPLOYEES
ARE WORKING IT'S
NOT SUFFICIENT TO JUST RELY ON
THE POLICE ALONG THEIR HOURS
REPORT THEM ON THE TANK WHERE
THEY DO THAT ON TV SYSTEMS.
RICK IF YOU CLEAR
CAN REASONABLY DETECTIVE
DETERMINE IF THERE ARE PEOPLE
WORKING FOR EXAMPLE TREE LOT IN
THE USING THE
E-MAIL SYSTEM. THAT'S WORKING
THAT THAT COMPENSATE THEM FOR
THAT SO THAT HOW IS A VERY GOOD
QUESTION AND TAKE THE KIND OF
TIME KEEPING IN OTHER SYSTEMS
ARE GOING TO BE CLEAR THE
ANSWER. BUT
EMPLOYERS WILL YOU HAVE TO YOU
KNOW THEY'LL NEED TO TAKE
ACTION TO DETECT AND FIGURE OUT
AND
MAYBE CONTROL. WHEN EMPLOYEES
ARE WORKING TO MAKE SURE IT'S
NOT YOU KNOW OFF THE CLOCK.
>> YEAH WE JUST HAD A GRAPHIC
UP A SECOND AGO THAT ONE IN 10
EMPLOYEES REPORTED WORKING 20
HOURS OF FREE
TIME ESSENTIALLY DURING THE
PANDEMIC SO THAT CERTAINLY IS
SOMETHING THAT EMPLOYEES ARE
LEARNING TO ADAPT TO THANK YOU
SO MUCH, PETE ICEBERG
