Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment Act (HIRE)

President Obama signed into law the Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment Act (HIRE), an economic stimulus plan that contains $15 billion dollars in new incentives for businesses, which hire unemployed workers in 2010.

Two key provisions that may affect you:

• Eliminating the current 6.2 percent employer Social Security tax for eligible new hires
• A $1,000 business tax credit for keeping eligible employees for at least 52 consecutive weeks

This legislation makes significant changes that go beyond payroll processing – your business may be affected in numerous ways. To help determine the impact of this new legislation, call our office to receive a free consultation.
