Coordinating State & Company Paid Leave [N/A]
Hello my multi-state HR friends! I work for a business consulting company with employees all over the country. We have around 1,200 in about 45 states. How do you all manage company-paid and state-paid family leaves? Currently, we run them together and deduct what the employee receives from state from company pay. We didn't used to do that, but our broker said it's most common and best practice for businesses to do it this way to prevent emplpyees from "stacking" leaves.
How do you manage? If you run state and company together, when do you start deducting for the state benefits? We estimate the state amount and start deducting once employee goes on leave, and ask employee to provide verification of the amount they are getting once state approves. If the amount is different, we make it up in next check.
