Background
A new subchapter SL 15005 Resources Manuals has been created.
SL 15005.010 contains the Temporary Emergency Worker Exclusion: Resource Guide. The purpose of
the guide is to examine the temporary emergency worker exclusion from FICA tax withholding
by providing general information on the laws and regulations that pertain to the exclusion
as well as detailing the possible situations in which a temporary emergency worker
may exist.
The temporary emergency worker exclusion states that services warranted because of
the existence of an unforeseen event (e.g., fire, storm, snow, earthquake, flood)
that call for immediate action by emergency personnel are excluded from FICA tax withholding.
