Act (FLSA) of the United States of America governed by the Department of Labor (DOL), Zeal will not allow any worker to be onboarded to the Zeal Whitelabel and API platforms that are not at least 14 years old on or before the first date of employment.
Work Location in Shifts - 04/11/2023

Optional Employee Bank Account - 03/24/2023
We now support onboarding an employee and running payroll for them without a bank account. The employees will be able to exclude the âRequire Bank Account Setupâ section when generating the employee onboarding link through the white label or use the payment_method_required
parameter when using the API.
Optional Signature on W-4 forms - 03/01/2022
We have introduced the capability for employers to fill up the Federal W-4 and State W-4 (if applicable) for their employees on the white label. When an employer is filling in W-4 information on an employeeâs behalf, they are able to check the âPreparerâ box. If the box is checked, the employee's signature will no longer be required to submit the W-4 forms.
Active Tax Parameters Page - 01/26/2022
We have added Active Tax Parameters page to the employee profile for the employers. This page will list the current withholding data that Zeal uses while processing payroll.
