Non-profits should pay special attention to the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (the Act). It includes a number of provisions, generally mandating employers with fewer than 500 employees to provide paid medical leave to employees impacted by COVID-19. The Act includes payroll tax credits to help employers defray the cost of providing these benefits to employees. Below are the key provisions likely to impact your non-profit organization:

  • Coronavirus emergency paid sick leave
  • Coronavirus emergency leave protection

These sections are available within our tax alert, Congress passes COVID-19-related tax relief. The Treasury Department will be providing guidance regarding the use and reporting of the payroll tax credits.

Tax developments and other advice will likely remain fluid in the coming days and weeks, so visit our Coronavirus Preparedness Resource Center periodically.
