Understanding the difference between exempt and non-exempt employees is critical to properly running your business and paying your employees fairly. Review with Mosey the basics of exempt and non-exempt employees.
What Is an Exempt Employee? When we talk about exempt employees, we’re referring to employees who aren’t covered by the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). These employees are paid a fixed salary and are exempt from earning overtime pay, among other protections.
If you’re a stakeholder in HR, finance, or even the founder of a small to mid-sized company, you already know state compliance can get tricky, especially when it comes to fluctuating tax rates.
With that in mind, let’s discuss state unemployment insurance, commonly abbreviated SUI.
What Is SUI? State unemployment insurance, or SUI, is an employer-funded tax designed to provide short-term financial support to employees who have been laid off or terminated without misconduct. If you’re operating a U.S.-based business — especially one that spans multiple states — you’ll find that SUI tax rates are diverse.
Whether you’re a solopreneur launching a new venture or managing a growing company, you’ll likely encounter various licenses throughout your business journey. These licenses can come from all levels of government — federal, state, and sometimes even your city or county.
They might be broad, such as a general business license, or highly specific to your industry, like a liquor license or a contractor’s license. Understanding which licenses apply to your business, how long a business license lasts, when to renew them, and how to manage the process is essential to operate efficiently.
