Author: ADP Admin/Wednesday, April 18, 2018/Categories: State Compliance Update, Iowa

  • Send the statement to the employee by mail;
  • Provide the statement to the employee at the employee’s normal place of business during normal employment hours; or
  • Provide the employee access to view the employee earnings statement electronically and provide the employee free and unrestricted access to a printer to print the statement.
Coverage: Employers with employees in Iowa.

Effective: July 1, 2018
