Hired my first employee
Well, I took the big plunge and after 3.5 years being self-employed working for myself I just hired my first employee. I have been comtemplating the idea for some time now and finally decided to do it.
I already got worker's compensation set up, that was easy since I already had an account for optional insurance for myself. I also set up a payroll account; did it online. I've contacted my insurance company about my Commercial General Liability policy to see if I have to make any changes. I've been reading up on labour law to make sure I don't infringe on my employee's rights at any time.
Can anyone think of anything I've missed that I should consider? Of course there is lots more to do such as office supplies, equipment, tools, etc. but I mean from a legal point of view.
Thanks,
Rob
