Employee Retention Credit (ERC) is a significant element of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, established to provide a refundable tax credit for employers who retain their employees and continue to pay wages during the COVID-19 pandemic. The credit calculates to 50% of qualified employee wages, capped at $5,000 per employee. This initiative is open to employers of all sizes, including those with fewer than 500 employees. The primary goal of the ERC is to assist employers in maintaining their payroll, preventing layoffs during the pandemic, and covering the costs of providing health insurance to their employees. By doing so, employers can save money while ensuring the employment of their workforce during these challenging times.
