-New Changes to Florida Law Impacting Florida Employers -
Effective July 1, 2023, private employers in Florida that have 25 or more employees are required to use E-Verify to verify a new employee’s employment eligibility. These employers will be required to certify on their first tax returns each calendar year that they are in compliance with this requirement when making contributions to or reimbursing the state’s unemployment compensation or reemployment assistance system. There will be a cost involved in training personnel to use this program, as well as navigate the system’s notices of non-authorization to work for potential hires. Contractors who provide services to public agencies will also be required to use E-Verify even if they have fewer than 25 employees. If an employer does not use E-Verify as required to under the law, as of July 1, 2024, there can be fines of up to $1,000 per day until the company is in compliance, as well as suspension of that company's licenses until the noncompliance is cured.
