Independent Contractor Classification Audits and Reclassifying Employees and Independent Contractors

Summary

This practice note explains how to audit an employer's classification of workers as independent contractors and helps readers determine whether and how to reclassify misclassified workers. Although it is not necessary to conduct an audit before reclassifying workers, and not every audit will lead to the reclassification of workers, it is useful for employers to consider audits and reclassification in tandem.
