Modest Means Helpline Small Business Webinar Series

Have you heard about litigation and tax liability surrounding misclassification of your workers? Do you know that there are layers of “tests” to help you categorize your worker as employee or independent contractor? Do you think that written agreements with workers can help decrease legal risk? This webinar will explain the complex legal distinctions between employees and independent contractors so that you can avoid the costly legal consequences of misclassification. We will explore key legal tests that are designed to guide your classification of hires and explore how written agreements with workers can assist in compliance. This is the third of 3 small business webinars to occur before June 30, 2025. To register for the “Essential Contracts for Your Small Business” webinar, click on the registration link as follows: https://bit.ly/IndependentContractororEmployee
