We may get down to sending people home when we don't have the work. we are non-union are there any state issues I need to be aware of?

Thank you,

You might want to look into the state Work Share program. You can furhlough 10% of your staff for at least 10% of their hours. The employees apply for unemployment for the hours not worked. You must apply for the Work Share program with the EDD. No cost to the employer. We have been using Work Share for nearly a year and it has worked well for us. Our employees take one day during each 2 week pay period (10% of 80 hours) they send in their certificate and received $90 from the state EDD. Check it out on line.

make sure theyre remunerated (in accordance with applicable regulations) for showing up when/if you have to send them home.
