April
2007 Human Resources Question
of the Month
Q. Must
employees being recalled from
layoff or seasonal staff be reported
as new hires as part of the New
York State Taxation and Finance "New
Hire Reporting"?
A. If
the break in service is 60 calendar
days or less, the recalled employee
does not have to be reported as
a new hire to state Taxation and
Finance. If the break in service
is more than 60 calendar days,
the employee must be reported.
A new W-4 is the easiest way to
report. The information required
to be reported includes the employers'
name and address and the employees'
name, social security number, address
and hire date.
