Finding and retaining great people is something all small business owners spend a lot of time doing, so staying on top of ever-changing labor regulations is important, both for employee retention as well as for labor law compliance. Xero and TSheets have amped up our partnership to help small business owners avoid the regulatory challenges associated with changes to the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA).
Under the FLSA employers are required to keep accurate timesheets for overtime-eligible employees for at least two years. Without easily accessible records, it’s very hard to defend against wage and hours disputes in a court of law. The integration of TSheets and Xero can lessen the burden that this puts on small business owners by guaranteeing fewer data entry inaccuracies and offering increased transparency to employees throughout the process.
