  • Why it’s important to know the difference between contractors and employees

  • The IRS’s current 3-factor test
  • The older — but still referenced — 20-factor test
  • Dealing with borderline situations — are they a contractor or are they an employee?
  • Form SS-8 — what to do if an employee files one
  • IRS relief programs: Section 530; Section 3509; the voluntary compliance program

Overview of the webinar

This webinar will cover what the IRS looks at when auditing whether a worker is an employee or a contractor. We will cover the current “3-factor” standard the IRS uses, as well as the older “20-factor” standards. We will also discuss the relief options available if you get audited and the IRS reclassifies contractors as employees.

NOTE: This webinar specifically focuses mostly on the IRS but we also talk briefly about other agencies that could audit this issue, such as the DOL or state agencies.

Who should attend?

  • Office Managers
  • HR Professionals
  • Bookkeepers
  • Accountants
  • Business owners

Why should you attend?

IRS audits on the subject of whether a worker is a contractor or an employee are on the rise. States are also increasing enforcement in this area. This webinar will help you tell the difference between a contractor and an employee and what to do if the IRS audits your business.
