Question/Topic: I heard there was a new requirement for Florida employers to let the state know within fourteen days of a new hire (an attempt to track dead beat dads & workers' compensation fraud, I think). Could you direct me to more information on this topic? 
Answer/Pointer: The Florida Statutes are online and searchable at the web site maintained by the Florida Legislature called Online Sunshine. Try the web site address: http://www.leg.state.fl.us/citizen/documents/statutes/search.html I used the search term workers' compensation and got 10 hits. Also, go to the Florida Department of Labor and Employment Security at: http://www.state.fl.us/dles/ The Division of Workers Comp is at: http://www.state.fl.us/dles/main/dlesdivs.htm#WC
