In an effort to increase tax revenue, the Internal Revenue Service has embarked on stepped-up enforcement of worker classification issues. The Department of Labor is also joining the effort with an army of investigatos charged with auditing and uncovering workers who have been misclassified as independent contractors. All employers' privately held businesses, publicly traded companies and tax-exempt organizations' are potential audit targets. Join us for a 60-minute discussion of what to expect if those investigators come knocking and how to prepare for their visit. Learn what you should be looking for in assessing your company's current classification practices and the ripple effects that misclassification can have beyond the payroll tax issues. Hear about possible alternative solutions for your workforce needs.
