What is the purpose of recognizing two categories of employees in the policy?
Since the North Carolina Wage and Hour Law and related Administrative Code allows an employer to require Direct Deposit as a condition of employment, it was deemed appropriate that all newly hired and rehired employees be advised of this condition at the time of employment. This advisement is done through a “Notification of Mandatory Direct Deposit Form.” While employees employed prior to August 1, 2007 are subject to the policy, it is not necessary to advise them of the condition of employment, since they are already employed. Such forms are retained by the employing agency.
