Time for Action This insurance mandate will cost the franchise industry $6.4 billion and put 3.2 million jobs at risk. 2011 Hudson Institute Study Many stores will have to cut worker hours out of necessity. It could be the difference between staying in business or going out of business. Stephen Caldiera, President of the International Franchise Association 1

Time for Action Pessimism becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy; it reproduces itself by crippling our willingness to act. Howard Zinn, You Can t Be Neutral on a Moving Train: A Personal History of Our Times 2

Employer Play or Pay Quick Review Applies in 2014 Applies to employers who averaged at least 50 full-time/full-time equivalent employees in the controlled group on business days of prior calendar year FTEs (30 hours per week) for each month FTEq for each month (total PT hours/divided by 120)* Divide by 12 * Don t count more than 120hrs/month for any PT employee Disregard seasonal employees if employer exceeded 50 FTE/FTEq for 120 days/four months or less, due to seasonal employees 10

Employer Play or Pay Pay option: No coverage is offered, employer subject to penalty $2,000 penalty applies if: The employer does not offer coverage to 95% of FTE s & their dependent children Children up to age 26 (biological, step, foster, adopted) Does not include spouses Non tax-deductible The $2,000 penalty is: Charged for all FTE s (minus the first 30) Penalty applied by Employer Identification Number (EIN, not control group) Play or Pay penalty EIN Minus 30 to calculate penalty Controlled Group prorated 11

Value of Plan* Where Do Restaurant Franchises Fit In? Professional Firms Characteristics of Service Firms Mix of FT and PT employees In some instances, not all employees qualify for coverage Manufacturing Firms Lower-paid workforce Average actuarial value health plans Financial Impact of Health Reform Services Firms More moderate employer-subsidized health plans Low participation Low cost PEPY *Value determined by actuarial plan value, level of employer subsidy, level of wages and employee uptake of plan.

How Many Employees Likely to Enroll in Coverage? Total # of full-time employees Employer mandate requires coverage offered to full-time employees (work 130 hours per month/30 hours per week) Less # in Measurement Period Variable and Seasonal employees may be eliminated from offering until full time status is determined Less # of <26 years who opt out Less # eligible for government programs Less # other opt-outs # covered by plan Employees less than 26 years old may elect to get coverage under parent s plan Employees eligible for Government programs (i.e. Medicaid, Medicare, Tricare, Indian Nation) not likely to elect employer coverage Other employees may opt out due to cost or availability of coverage through spouse; employer only required to offer coverage Determine number of employees likely to elect employer coverage or to purchase coverage on exchange 29

When Must New Employees be Offered Coverage? Offer of coverage effective within three months of hire Variable hour position may not need to offer coverage until 13 months after hire, if at all Can apply 12 month look-back period Does employee work average of 130 hours/month during 12 months? YES eligible for coverage for next 12 months (Offer coverage within 13 months of hire) NO need not offer coverage for next 12 months 30

What is a Variable Hour Position? Based on facts and circumstances at date of hire, and Cannot determine that employee is reasonably expected to work, on average, at least 30 hours per week (or 130 hours per month) Examples* Part-time employees Hourly employees with fluctuating schedules * These are merely examples of individuals that might be considered variable hour new hires. Facts and circumstances may limit an employer s ability to treat these employees as variable hour new hires The IRS may disagree with determination and impose penalty if every crew member is labeled as variable hour but many end up working full-time 31
