As a result of Indiana Senate Bill 148 employers will be required to file reports of newly hired and rehired employees electronically.

Additionally, employers will be required to provide the following new data elements on all reports of newly hired or rehired employees:

· Employee’s current job title

· Employee’s primary standardized occupational classification code

· Employee’s starting compensation

· Employee’s rate of pay (annually, hourly, other) For more information regarding electronic reporting, please visit the state’s Electronic Reporting page. Transition period through July 1st 2025 The requirements above are effective July 1, 2024. However, recognizing that employers and service providers may need time to make programming changes, the state has announced that both old and new file formats will be accepted through July 1, 2025. Any missing data from the new fields in the new format will not prevent the file from being accepted, nor will employers be penalized for failing to report the new data elements.

Next Steps

ADP is currently reviewing the requirements and will communicate a plan of action prior to the July 1, 2025 transition period expiration date.
