Employer of Record Service
Problem: Your company has additional staffing needs but may not need a full-time permanent hire.
Solution: Use of independent contractors to fulfill the requirements.
Risk: Independent contractor misclassification and the associated fines and penalties.
Solution: Engage a PEO to deliver Employer of Record service.
Does your company use independent contractors (also known as 1099 employees or sole proprietors)? Independent contractors are a great way to address your changing staffing needs, but they also increase your compliance risk. If the government determines that you have misclassified employees as independent contractors, you could be stuck paying large fines, penalties, and back taxes.
Visit our News section to learn more about corporations that have recently realized misclassification penalties. In Canada and the United States PEO services are a valuable business partner, reducing misclassification risk and saving money with streamlined processing.
