U.S. to Include Home Care Aides in Wage and Overtime Law
It is crazy. What is next? 1099s? Tax withholdings?
Hiring a local person (not through an agency) to sit with an elderly person part time was one of the least expensive ways to deal with an elderly person needing assisted living. Now if they spend the night, so they work more than 40 hours in a week, they have to be paid overtime.
Yes, it is absolutely crazy and I’m pretty sure some type notification to the IRS is coming, probably a 1099.
