Aerotek Releases Report on Compliance of Per Diem Practices in Aviation

Aerotek® Inc., a leading provider of recruiting and staffing services, today released a new report, Ensuring Compliant Per Diem Practices in Aviation. The report provides insight into how companies should partner with their staffing provider to  implement a legally compliant per diem program to mitigate risk and government scrutiny.

When implementing per diem programs, aviation companies and their staffing partners have a responsibility to adhere to strict government requirements. In the Ensuring Compliant Per Diem Practices in Aviation report, readers will learn:

• The legal and financial risks of misusing per diem payments, as defined by payments to employees who must travel to a work location beyond a 50-mile radius from his or her primary residence
• Best practices for companies to ensure they are in compliance with IRS and other requirements
• Recommendations for reducing risk when working with a staffing agency

“Aviation companies that incorrectly implement per diem programs risk substantial financial and legal penalties,” said Kirk Hardy, Aerotek Director of Business Development. “Managing per diem risk is all about the health of your company in the long run versus cutting corners to achieve short-term benefits.”
