Independent Contractors
Employers often use contingent workers to cut costs. But if they misclassify temps or independent contractors, and those workers are judged employees, then the employer could be liable for back overtime, benefits, federal income taxes, Social Security, unemployment insurance and Workers' Comp. So it's imperative that employers know what factors the IRS uses in determining whether an individual is truly an independent contractor, as well as whether independent contractors fall under the protection off federal and state employment laws.
