Employment Credits & Incentives

We help employers capture tax credits and incentives for job creation, retention and training.

Supporting investments in your workforce 

How you invest in your people is among the most important financial decisions you can make.

Budgeting for critical human capital investments is made a little easier with tax credits for employers. Federal, state and local governments offer workforce programs that incentivize workplace diversity and facilitate access to jobs for American workers. Employment-related tax credits and incentives are offered to employers who create jobs, hire individuals from targeted groups, retain employees and provide training opportunities.  

BDO helps companies identify, claim and support employment-related tax credits and incentives. We leverage a technology-enabled approach to efficiently collect the information needed to calculate and claim credit opportunities while maintaining employee privacy. We bring deep knowledge across HR, finance, payroll, and tax to guide you through the entire claims process, from identifying the right workforce investments to overseeing compliance with incentive programs.
