Iowa Wage Law Change: Mailing Paychecks

There will be a change in Iowa's Wage Payment Collection Law effective
July 1, 2008, related to the mailing of paychecks. The amended law
requires that an employer have a written request from an employee before
wages can be sent to an employee by mail. The amended law only applies
to the mailing of actual paychecks. It does not apply to the mailing of
pay stub information. It does not affect the previously passed direct
deposit law. 

The purpose of the revised law, passed by the Iowa Legislature this
spring and signed by Governor Culver, is to ensure that employees
receive wages in a timely fashion. The law also makes an employer liable
for any bank overdraft charges assessed an employee if the employer
fails to pay an employee's wages on or by a regularly scheduled payday.

Wage web page for more information on the paycheck mailing law.
