Secure Talent Releases Worker Misclassification White Paper
White Paper Offers Expertise in Avoiding Worker Misclassification
SAN FRANCISCO, (Sept. 18, 2008)—Secure Talent, a national provider of 1099 compliance and complete payrolling services, releases its latest resource for worker misclassification: a white paper titled “1099 Compliance: Avoid worker misclassification and save your company from financial disaster.” The complimentary white paper discusses landmark cases in the employee misclassification battle, and how employers can avoid some of the same mistakes that companies such as FedEx Corp. and Microsoft Corporation made when classifying workers as independent contractors rather than employees.
“The issue of worker misclassification is undeniably gaining speed and Secure Talent wishes to provide educational resources for colleagues who recognize the importance of engaging independent contractors,” says Jeff Phelps, founder and president of Secure Talent.
White paper topics include:
- FedEx and Microsoft’s worker misclassification legal battles.
- Factors to determine independent contractor status.
- Potential employer liability.
- What employers can do to ensure proper worker classification.
This white paper is set to be the first in a series on 1099 compliance. Those interested in more information about the topic of worker misclassification or those who have questions about the white paper are invited to call Secure Talent at its toll-free phone number at 800-778-0197.
