The Massachusetts Department of Unemployment Assistance (DUA) is a state agency responsible for administering unemployment benefits to eligible individuals in Massachusetts. DUA works to ensure compliance with state regulations and provide support to those seeking financial assistance during periods of unemployment.
Every state has different compliance requirements for business owners. These requirements can impact wages, breaks, benefits, sick time, and workplace accommodations. Keeping track of them all can be highly involved, particularly for multi-state employers.

When you think of unemployment insurance tax, you probably think of state unemployment tax first—but there’s actually a federal unemployment tax too.
Both state and federal unemployment tax are taxes that employers pay directly to the government, typically calculated as a percentage of payroll. Employment tax obligations can include federal, state, and local income tax, social security and Medicare tax, and SUTA and FUTA tax. To maintain compliance (and be prepared to pay), employers need to understand which taxes apply to them, how to calculate their liabilities, and when and how to make payments.
In California, the balance between workplace productivity and personal privacy is an important dialogue for both employers and employees. At the heart of this conversation lies a strong framework of employee privacy rights rooted deeply in the state’s constitution.
These rights safeguard employees from undue intrusion by employers into their personal lives and ensure that personal matters remain personal.
Understanding these rights is significant for fostering a respectful and trusting workplace environment.
