Hi Everyone,

Does anyone have a clear, valid source that explains how the upcoming rules for Obamacare relate to a small library? We have 13 staff and 2 are full time with insurance.

My question in regards to it is: Do the staff working over 30 hours need to be working less than 30 hours so that we don’t get fined for not offering them insurance? And if so, when does the reduced hours take effect: now or in 2014?

I have gotten a lot of conflicting feedback on this topic and insurance companies are calling it a “grey area” so I wondered if there is any source out there with a clear explanation.

Thank you for your help!

Andrea
