Are your non-employees properly classified? If not, the consequences can be severe. Companies are being targeted and subjected to fines, penalties, and sometimes significant damages for misclassifying employees as contractors.

Free agents, which make up 28 percent of the U.S. labor force, are here to stay. Companies increasingly rely on temporary labor, contractors, consultants, and others to supplement their full-time employee workforce.

Unfortunately, it is not always easy to determine who fits into which category. Further, the state and federal governments are cracking down on misclassification, now more than ever.

In this highly engaging program, you will:

  • Identify the differences between contractors, consultants, and other contingent labor
  • Understand the risks associated with misclassification
  • Learn how to appropriately classify workers and contractors at your company
