Colorado Requirements Complete

XpertHR is on track to have all 50 states and Washington DC by the end of July. We are completing states on a rolling basis until then and are now up to 23 states, with the completion of four states this week.

Our Colorado Employment Law Coverage

XpertHR covers the complete spectrum of labor and employment law for Colorado employers.

For example, did you know:

  • On January 1, 2013, Colorado's minimum wage rate will be adjusted for inflation.
  • Legislation has been introduced in the Colorado General Assembly that would require private Colorado employers to confirm workers' employment eligibility through E-Verify.
  • Colorado has a comprehensive labor relations statute, the Colorado Labor Peace Act (CLPA), covering private employers with eight or more employees.
  • Colorado employers must pay regular employees serving on a jury their regular wages, not to exceed $50 a day, unless otherwise agreed to by the employer and the employee, during the first three days of jury service.
  • Colorado employers should be aware of the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act when disciplining employees because it has broader coverage than federal antidiscrimination statutes and contains additional protected categories.

This is but a taste of the depth and breadth provided to our Colorado subscribers!
