New Jersey Breakfast Briefing: What Employers Need to Know About Alternative Pay Options

To combat a tight job market and a seemingly shrinking workforce, New Jersey employers are looking for creative ways to retain and attract talent. An Earned Wage Access policy – a revolutionary employee benefit program that offers employees almost instant access to their pay, including providing options such as Venmo or cryptocurrency  – might just be what gives companies the edge. Companies using these benefit programs experienced 19% lower turnover rates. 

Attorney Phillip Bauknight, Chair of Fisher Phillips’ Cryptocurrency and Blockchain Practice Group, along with New Jersey attorneys Eric Baginski and Sarah Wieselthier provide their insights on how businesses in many states are dealing onerous employment laws, and what employers need to know about earned wage access to implement a program successfully.

The firm is submitting this webinar for HRCI/SHRM credit. Fisher Phillips will apply for 1.0 general CLE in New Jersey and Pennsylvania with the ability to offer reciprocity in Connecticut and New York. The firm will make all reasonable efforts to obtain CLE credit for this program in every state that is relevant to attendee's MCLE needs. In certain instances, some programs may not be awarded CLE credit because of content, delivery or jurisdictional restrictions. 

If you have any questions, please contact Jennifer Cameron.
