According to DOL guidance, many of the workers you currently pay as 1099 contractors may now be considered full employees. The cost of even the most common mistakes can be staggering. Don’t miss this information-packed session to find out what the latest updates mean for your organization. (more details below)

In case you missed it, here are the basics:
DOL’s Wage & Hour Division issued an Administrator’s Interpretation informing employers that the DOL now considers independent contractor status the exception rather than the rule. Employers must use an “Economic Reality” test to determine if a worker is an employee or an independent contractor.
If an independent contractor is largely dependent on your company for their livelihood, they are likely an employee under the new guidelines.
There are tax issues to consider as well. The IRS is aggressively pursuing uncollected withholding and estimated taxes from employers who misclassified workers. And on top of that, many state agencies are doing the same to collect state taxes or workers’ compensation insurance.
What does this all mean for your organization? And what further changes could be ahead?
This webinar, featuring employment law attorney Anniken Davenport, will cover what you must do to comply with current DOL guidance and prepare for any future changes
The session will give you guidance on how to properly:
