(Maryland) - I'm an employer and we have a former paid interns mother demanding copies of the daughters' payslips including hours worked and hourly rate. The former employee is over 18 years old and has not worked for us for over 10 months). I have no power of attorney on file for the Mother. The Mother is claiming that PoA in this case is unnecessary and that I should hand them all over to her. We have not heard anything from the daughter at all.

Opinions?

Thanks in advance.

Daughter is a legal adult. If mom does not have a power of attorney simply tell her that you can only give that information to the former employee herself.

Thank you for the quick response. Is it relevant that the intern was 17 when she first started working for us, and turned 18 during her employment? Or is it only relevant that she is now an adult?

Not relevant. Heck, I'd argue that you aren't even required to provide the info to mom if the employee in question was 17.

Agreed. Doesn't matter how old she was THEN. NOW she is a legal adult. If SHE asks for them, fine. Mommy, on the other hand, can go pound sand.
