Question

Remove hourly rate for salary employees

We gave our employees access to paychecks, but it shows hours for salaried employees and people are really upset. How can we either (1) remove hours for salaried employees or (2) revoke access.  Right now we are looking at cancelling quickbooks payroll and just moving payroll to a different vendor - but that's a huge pain and we'd rather stay with QB.

 

FYI I'm an employment lawyer. Employers who show hourly rates for salaried employees are inviting lawsuits under the Fair Labor Standards Act overtime laws, especially in places like California.

Hey robtexas,

 

WorkForce is designed to make your life easier by allowing your employees to see their payroll details online. Based on the information you've given, it sounds like you're in the US. I see how the presentation of hours and rates would upset your salaried employees, so I want to make sure we give you the appropriate support. For future reference, the best way to ensure you're posting in the right community is by using the flag in the top-right of your screen.

 

We've received similar reports, and it seems our engineering team is currently in the process of updating how salary information is displayed for salaried employees. Our US support team should be able to provide you with further assistance shortly.

Does anybody have an answer for this? I've spoken to about 10 different QB reps and no one has helped me with this.
