TalentConnect acts as your trusted compliance partner, managing worker classification as an Employer of Record (for W-2 employees) or Agent of Record (for 1099 contractors). We take on the legal and administrative responsibility, helping you avoid fines, penalties, and lawsuits—so you can focus on growth, not legal risk.
Penalties vary by jurisdiction, but potential consequences include:
- Back taxes and interest
- Fines and regulatory penalties
- Retroactive benefits and unpaid overtime
- Legal fees and possible litigation
- Damage to your company’s reputation
A 1099 contractor is typically self-employed and controls how and when work is completed. A W-2 employee works under the direction and control of the employer and is entitled to benefits, tax withholdings, and labor protections. Proper classification depends on various legal factors, including IRS and state labor law guidelines.
