The biggest concern organizations have when they invest in training is retention. By this, I mean having employees retain the material once they leave the class. No company wants to create a program and take employees out of the operation only to have the same issues occur repeatedly. It’s important for training programs to be designed and delivered in a way that increases retention of the content.

The federal unemployment tax, also known as the FUTA tax, pays unemployment compensation to workers who lose their jobs. Employers report and pay FUTA taxes separately from Social Security, Medicare and withheld income taxes. Employees do not pay this tax or have it withheld from their pay—it is exclusively paid by employers. Employers pay FUTA taxes on the first $7,000 of each employee’s annual wages at a rate of 6.0%. Employers who pay their state unemployment taxes on time receive a credit reduction of 5.4%, making the net rate 0.6%. California at 1.8% is the only U.S.

By Julie Palmer, Technical Writing Manager, Ceridian. Back in 2009, I was quarantined with H1N1, affectionately known as the swine flu. This (painful, awful, wouldn’t-wish-it-on-my-worst-enemy-ok-maybe-that-one-guy) experience taught me about the importance of sick leave. I’d always realized that taking time off helps employees recover, but before the quarantine, I hadn’t really thought about how it also helps prevent illnesses from spreading between colleagues. Thankfully for them, I don’t think they came to the realization the same way that I did.). Dayforce HCM Can Help!
