  • Work Location Allocation Form (Ohio W2 Employees ONLY)   09-02-2023

    Hello


    Due to changing remote work locations (including Hybrid or Onsite) and requirements, we need to make sure that our records are current and correct. For this reason, we will need our employees to provide a breakdown of the hours that they work by location each week.


    If your hours are allocated to your work locations using a formula (i.e., 16 hours per week at location 1 – rest at location 2). please describe the formula used in the box at the bottom of the attached form.  We will use this formula going forward (until we receive another form from you) so you won’t need to send us weekly breakdown of your hours.


    If you are only working at one location, please list that location as Work Location 1 and show “100% at Location 1” in the box.


    If the allocation of your time between worksites is not based on a consistent formula, we will need an allocation form (attached) showing the breakdown of your hours between work locations each week.  Please send these to us each Monday for the prior week.


    Please complete and send this form at your earliest convenience or contact support 614-888-2227 ext. 4680, if you have questions or need help completing the form. We will continue your tax withholding as currently happening until we receive an updated form.


     


    Thanks
