Misclassification is a costly mistake that can happen to any company. However, by taking the right preventative measures, you can save yourself and your company a great deal of money and negative exposure in the long run. Companies often Misclassify Employees as Exempt Workers. In this webinar, we will have a closer look at what the IRS says about independent contractors. The IRS established an 11-point check to help determine status. The FSLA has three tests to better classify workers as exempt or non-exempt.
