Are Your Controls In Place

January 6, 20200
CEOHR, Inc. PEO

It’s January 2020 – Have your exempt (salaried) employees been reclassified to non-exempt (hourly)? Have you put controls in place to manage this change? 1) Punching In/Out – It’s a new concept for salaried employees to track their time. If your salaried employees have been reclassified to hourly to comply with the new law, these employees are now eligible for overtime if they work over 40 hours in one workweek. 2) Morale – If employees don’t know why their status is changing, (especially true for Managers) morale may become an issue.

Data Security – Fresh Reminders to Minimize Your Risk

January 17, 20190

Many small business owners assume they are not famous enough to be the target of cyberattacks. This mindset can lead to all sorts of trouble, including loss of your most valuable assets: customer and employee data. In 2016, 71% of ransomware cyberattacks were aimed at businesses with less than 100 employees.**** Even though small businesses tend to neglect cybersecurity, one thing is for certain: it’s much easier to get inside an unprotected system than it is to penetrate the security of big corporations. Remember that hackers can steal money, employee details, customer data, and other valuable information. Moreover, a data breach can permanently damage your relationship with employees and customers.
