Attention Maryland workers and employers! Starting today (October 1), most Maryland employers must provide workers with a written statement each payday with information about their pay calculation, including hours, rates, compensation, and deductions. Employers posting jobs must include information about compensation and benefits in their postings. More information about both of these new laws, including FAQs, optional templates (that employers may choose to use to satisfy their obligations), and instructions, is available here: https://lnkd.in/eHEV6hT9.
