A brief guide to hiring in USA
How is payroll structured in the USA?
In the USA, employees are subject to both Federal and State level taxes. Federal Income Tax is based on a progressive scale with different brackets for single or married individuals. State Income Tax rates vary, and states like Alaska, Florida, Nevada, New Hampshire, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington, and Wyoming do not impose State Income Tax.
What are the leave regulations?
The USA is one of the few countries that does not mandate paid vacation entitlement. Any paid vacation offered by an employer is at their discretion. Additionally, National Holidays do not necessarily entail paid leave for employees.
What should be considered when dismissing an employee?
Employment rights in the USA are relatively straightforward, but it’s advisable to consult with one of our employment law advisors before proceeding. This ensures that the process remains compliant. Incorrect handling of dismissals can result in significant compensation owed to the employee.
