It's important for employers to ensure that all employee hours are accurately captured for ACA compliance.
In the last quarter of the year, it’s important for employers to ensure that all employee hours are accurately captured for Affordable Care Act (ACA) compliance. Employers are required to offer minimum essential, affordable health coverage to their full-time employees or face potential tax penalties. Determining whether an employee qualifies as full-time is a key component of ACA compliance, and proper tracking of employee hours is essential in this process.
BAS’ ACA data collection and reporting service provides an easy and efficient way to track employee hours for ACA compliance. Key features of the ACA hours upload tool include:
Additionally, users can opt to receive email notifications when a file is uploaded, eliminating the need to wait for the file to finish importing. BAS also offers a training video to guide users through the file upload process and ensure a seamless experience.
