Description
The Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Act of 1996, commonlyknown as the Welfare Reform Act, requires employers to report newlyhired employees in all states.
This program generates a list for each tax company and each statecontaining the following federally mandated information:

• Employer name, address, and identification number (EIN)


• Employee name, address, and Social Security Number

The list also contains additional information, such as employee date ofbirth, date of hire, and employer state unemployment insurance number,depending on each state's requirement.
You can choose to produce this report individually for each state or ina summarized version for all states on magnetic media. If you choose toproduce the summarized version, you only need to submit it to a singlestate, rather than individually to each state.

Prerequisites
You must maintain the Main personnel assignment infotype (0712)to identify the main contract. This will enable proper reporting ofhead-count, since all head-count reports only add up the main contractsfor a person.

Examples


• An employee has three contracts (C1, C2, C3) with employer A. C1 is the
main contract. This is a single employer scenario. The New Hire reportwill report the employee only once. Here we report the main contract(C1).

• An employee has three contracts (C1, C2, C3): contracts C1& C2 at
employer A ; contract C3 at employer B. If you run the New Hire reportfor multiple companies, the employee is counted once at each company.That means for employer A, contract C1 is counted once and for employerB, contract C3 is counted once.

Procedure
Make the appropriate selections in the Report-specific selectionssection. If necessary, you can further restrict your selection criteriaby selecting personnel numbers, company code, etc.
Note: The report only selects active employees (employment status '3').
Select either paper or magnetic media as output format. If you selectmagnetic media, you must also specify which state you are submitting thereport to and the file name and path for the report.

Output
The program creates a report summarizing the required data for theemployer and each new employee. You can print and save the results. Ifyou chose to output the report on magnetic media, the file is saved tothe path and file name you specified.
