This is a website run out of India (check the whois records). Seems like a tricky way to collect information on employees at businesses. This shouldn't be on the front page of HN.
Stuff like this should only be on a .gov website and nobody in their right mind should enter in employee information into a random third party website run out of India by a single dude with a hotmail email address for a whois record. Nice try.
I couldn't disagree more. With your line of argument, start ups shouldn't exist because "a dude from his garage cannot be trusted with business info." Anyway The information being asked can very well be bought/scraped if somebody needs to.
Keep on imposing your line of argument, and of course downvoting. But the truth is I was trying to solve a pain for small businesses most of which have not yet complied by sending the notification. It seems you never tried the website and started with your baseless arguments. Again with this website I have just made electronic delivery of the notification simpler as the same requires that "delivery is tracked". I just take employees email and name (optional) and basic business information necessary to prepare the model notice obtained from DOL website.
Solving somebody pain is a path to a startup, if you have some other definition please feel free to live by that.
The server is in fact in USA, if you could have cared to check.
I think it would have been better had it been into India to safe it from NSA snooping. isn't it?
The penalty requirement is recently waved off. I should update it. But the notice is required to be sent under the section 18B of FLSA.
Also, if the employee does not receive the notice and he misses the open enrollment period, he can sue the employer later at any point.
