Does your organization put worker classification practices as a low priority and pretend the risks do not exist just because you aren’t impacted right now? We’re all busy and urgent things compete for our attention every day. It’s hard to share precious time spent growing your business with paying attention to a HUGE potential risk. Then one day you open the mail and you’ve received a letter telling you that you’re being audited for not properly classifying your independent contractors as employees.
Let’s admit it: we’re in a great economy, and we like to focus on all the positive benefits and what good things can come from this. All that good could be wiped out very quickly if you don’t invest less than one hour to see if you could prevent it from happening.
Are you overlooking any worker classification risks, such as rehiring former workers as Independent Contractors/1099? Does your organization know they have a worker misclassification compliance issue, but think they’ll never get audited and decide to take the risk anyway?
We want to help you to gain the knowledge and understanding you need to ensure your organization is up-to-date on all the new compliance regulations. Connie Wendt, VP Compliance & Relations, ClearPath Workforce Management, and Candice Bedolla, Contingent Workforce Management Consultant, Founder and Managing Partner of SHIFT13, will be co-hosting a webinar, “The Gig Economy: What Does it Mean for Talent Management and Compliance?”
In this webinar, you’ll learn the latest information about what will impact the gig economy for companies trying to recruit top talent and the risks involved with worker misclassification.
We will highlight what can happen if you don’t properly classify Independent Contractors, as well as the risk mitigation services available to you.
