Hybrid and remote work present organizations with multiple challenges that threaten to undermine the value of providing such flexibility to employees. Remote work taxes and rules vary by state, and when your employees work internationally, the complexities multiply even more.

What’s at stake? Companies that successfully navigate the tax implications of remote and hybrid work can reduce their risks, strengthen compliance and position themselves as employers of choice.

Employers need to know at all times where an employee’s tax home is. But it’s not easy—you need to have multiple systems in place to collect that information accurately and make sure it’s updated.
