Greetings ADOMA and Friends of ADOMA,

Aloha,
As we look ahead to the reopening of things, questions come up regarding ADOMA. How do we move forward after all this time of social distancing and the new norm of on-line gatherings? Do we continue with only on-line meetings from now on or do we go back to hosting monthly meetings? Do we restructurer ourselves as one group and no longer have chapters or do we stay as we are? The board has been working on these and many other questions regarding ADOMA.

OSHA's Top 5 Most Frequently Cited Violations for Dealers and Repair Shops


Preventable incidents are not only causing serious injuries but are costing your members. OSHA penalties can exceed $13,000 per violation – and as much per day for every day the issue hasn’t been fixed by OSHA’s deadline. 
 
Fortunately, avoiding an OSHA citation isn’t as complex or cost-intensive as many dealers think. Small steps can save your dealer members 6 or 7 figures—or even save an employee’s life.








Are You Sure You're Paying True Interchange Fees?

There are four ways credit card processors can manipulate your Interchange costs for a profit. Learn how to spot this on your merchant statements.


Extension of federal paid leave tax credits
Time off for vaccines

(Published on Fri, 05/21/2021 - 8:11am)

Congress passed the American Rescue Plan in March of 2021 to extend the paid leave tax credits available to employers with less than 500 employees through September 30, 2021. While employers are no longer required by federal law to provide the leave, if this leave is voluntarily provided (or, provided pursuant to a state or local mandate), employers can continue to obtain tax credits for the maximum amount allowed under federal law for leave taken through September 30, 2021. 


Vaccines and COVID protocols
Restrictions are changing, but care is still needed

(Published on Fri, 05/21/2021 - 8:11am)

The Centers for Disease Control (“CDC”) caused a stir on May 13, 2021, when it issued its “Interim Public Health Recommendations for Fully Vaccinated People.” This guidance allows fully vaccinated individuals to forgo wearing masks and some social distancing protocols in certain circumstances. It is a welcome relief for many, but came as a surprise to state and local governments and the businesses currently operating under COVID protocols.
