1099 Contractor Risk Assessment and Classification

Engage Independent Contractors with Compliance Confidence

Independent contractors, otherwise known as 1099s, ICs and consultants, are a valuable part of America’s workforce. And along with the growing number of contractors, comes increased risk for employers. Laws regarding employee classification constantly undergo assessment and change based on a state or federal level. That means businesses must stay abreast of legislation and the multitude of guidelines by various government agencies.

Secure Talent helps businesses mitigate the risks associated with engaging contractors through workforce assessment and classification. Each step of the way, we arm our clients with the tools needed to stay in compliance now and in the future.

Even after we complete contractor assessment and classification, Secure Talent serves as a risk mitigation partner for the long haul. We not only ensure that everything is in order when we finish our testing and classification, but also make sure we’re available for future initiatives.
