Domestic employee coverage threshold for 2023
Public Law 103-387 established the domestic employee coverage threshold amounts
for 1994 and 1995 and provided for automatic determinations thereafter. Under this law,
the threshold for 2023 shall be equal to the 1995 amount of $1,000 multiplied
by the ratio of the national average wage index for
2021 to that for 1993. If the amount so determined is not a multiple of $100,
it is rounded to the next lower multiple of $100.

1995 threshold | $1,000 |
1993 average wage index | 23,132.67 |
2021 average wage index | 60,575.07 |
Computation | $1,000 times 60,575.07
divided by 23,132.67 equals $2,618.59, which rounds down to $2,600 |

amount of $1,000 multiplied by the ratio of the national
average wage index for 2021 to that for 1997. If the amount so determined
is not a multiple of $100, it is rounded to the nearest multiple of $100.
