Are You an Applicable Large Employer?
The Affordable Care Act (ACA) requires all ALEs to offer health coverage to at least 95% of full-time employees and their dependents or pay costly fines. ALEs must also meet ACA reporting requirements to show medical plans offered and the cost of coverage.
ALE status is determined yearly based on the average size of the employer’s workforce for the prior year. Employers who have 50+ full-time or full-time equivalent employees must complete reporting requirements.
Understanding Full-Time Status
Employers with at least 50 full-time employees are considered an ALE and subject to ACA requirements. This includes employers with at least 50 full-time equivalent employees.
Full-time status is based on an employee who averages 30+ hours per week or 130+ hours during the calendar month.
Employers must calculate employee hours (*with some exceptions) for a calendar year to determine if they have 50+ full-time equivalent employees. Failure to do so can lead to costly fines, penalties, and other legal issues.
