Topia Survey: 28% of Employees Worked Outside Their Home State or Country During the Pandemic, But Only 1/3 Reported It to HR
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/
Topia, the leader in Global Talent Mobility, today released the results of its annual Adapt survey, which finds that remote work has created massive tax compliance risks-and strategic opportunities-for enterprises. The 2021 survey finds that since the COVID-19 pandemic began, 28% of employees have worked outside their home state or country, but only one-third reported all those days to HR. Consequently, their employers may have failed to withhold payroll taxes appropriately but didn t realize it. Unless HR monitors where employees work-something 94% of employees are open to-enterprises risk hefty penalties in the event of an audit.
