With over 20,000 daily commuters between Michigan and Ontario, the post COVID-19 landscape has radically transformed the rules of remote work and payroll management. In this article, we focus on the technical rules on both sides of the border, how remote and hybrid work policies have spotlighted the risks of compliance, and how change management is critical to a creating a positive experience for all stakeholders involved. We take a detailed look at varying tax rates, the implementation of dual payroll systems, and the intricacies involved in social security agreements.

Learn how effective change management can not only ensure compliance and minimize risk but also optimize business processes for both employers and employees.
