|
When I sign on with Prime Source Management, am I required to provide a full spectrum of benefits to my employees? |
| |
No. We lend creativity to you. Prime Source offers a menu of fully insured benefits which can be paid by you, the client, or by the employee. |
|
What pay schedule does Prime Source Management use to pay my employees? |
| |
You may choose to stay on your current pay schedule or select a new one. |
|
What does it take to get started, and what are the contractual agreements? |
| |
It's simple: A staffing agreement outlines the Prime Source Management and Client Company responsibilities, rates and terms. Then a Prime Source Management Representative conducts an employee orientation at the worksite. |
|
Is a co-employee arrangement accepted by my insurance certificate holders? |
| |
Certainly. Prime Source Management can make certificate requests quick and easy. |
|
What will my employees think about getting their paycheck from Prime Source? |
| |
Honestly, they probably won't notice the difference, other than getting a benefits package that is typically only available at large companies. Because Prime Source Management has thousands of co-employees, we can offer big company benefits like health, dental, vision and disability insurance, a cafeteria plan, a 401(k) plan and more. Plus, we'll make sure you get the best coverage at the lowest possible cost - so you'll never have to shop around. |
|
When are my employees eligible for health insurance and do I have to contribute on their behalf? |
| |
The standard eligibility for health insurance is the 1st day of the month following 90 days of employment. Eligibility may vary depending on union affiliations, or other special circumstances. Clients may elect an additional waiting period for their company. In most areas, Prime Source Management offers health insurance that requires client contributions and participation requirements. Contact Prime Source Management for details regarding your area. |
|
What kinds of payroll deductions are taken from my employees' payroll? |
| |
Deductions may vary by state. Most states allow the following: voluntary deductions (i.e., health insurance, dental insurance, vision insurance, 401(k), Section 125), non-voluntary deductions (i.e., Medicare, Social Security), garnishments, child support and IRS levies. For specifics on deductions in your area, contact Prime Source Management. |
|
What do I do with the employees' paperwork? |
| |
A Prime Source Management Representative conducts a new client sign-up. At that time, PSM representatives assist employees with the required new hire paperwork. You will receive a client kit containing all the necessary forms for future new employees, or you may simply access the forms packet online.
Once the employee completes the paperwork, you, the client, will verify that all items are complete and that the employee has signed all the new hire forms. Once this is done, you simply return all the completed information to PSM.
As you add new employees, have them complete the necessary paperwork available at the worksite or online. |
|
What paperwork do I, as the supervisor, need to fill out in case of an on-the-job injury? |
| |
In the event of an injury, you must complete the First Report of Injury form. The employee is required to fill out the Employee's Notice of Injury form. Fax completed forms to the Workers' Compensation Department at Prime Source Management. These reports are required whether or not medical attention is necessary. Please contact the Workers' Compensation Department with any questions. |
|
What do I do with my state quarterly tax information for the first quarter after I have signed on with Prime Source Management? |
| |
When you join with Prime Source, you no longer have employees to report. Simply send the quarterly tax form back to the state, reference that your employees are now with Prime Source Management, and mark "final return" on the form.
If you paid employee wages for any time during the quarter, you are still responsible for reporting those wages and paying the appropriate taxes. |
|
What should I do when I receive a request for information on an unemployment claim? |
| |
If you receive a state unemployment claim/request form, you should contact Prime Source's Unemployment Department. Promptly fax the unemployment form to PSM whether it is in Prime Source's name or your company's name. Prime Source will obtain information from you as to why the employee was terminated. |
Prime Source Management hires a new Director of Human Resources to assist clients with detailed aspects in that field.
