Two new tax benefits are now available to employers hiring workers who were previously unemployed or only working part time. The provisions are part of the Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment Act (HIRE). Employers who hire unemployed workers between Feb. 3 of this year and Jan. 1, 2011 may qualify for a 6.2 percent payroll tax incentive. Additionally, for each worker retained for at least a year, businesses may claim an additional general business tax credit of up to $1,000 per worker when they file their 2011 income tax.
