Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment Act (HIRE)
Posted by Emil Estafanous, CPA on March 19, 2010 · 38 Comments
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.
