The recent Worker Classification Rule introduced by the US Department of Labor is just one example of how countries are tightening their laws around the misclassification of contractors.

The risks for businesses that misclassify their contractors are numerous. Fines and penalties. Lawsuits. Reputational damage.

Navigating the laws and regulatory frameworks around the correct classification of your workers can feel particularly difficult if you run a global company.

Watch this recorded interview where we explain:

  • The latest updates to contractor classification laws in key markets that every company needs to know.
  • How to ensure your current & future independent contractors are correctly classified in line with local labour laws.
  • Strategies to avoid misclassification, including partnering with an EOR to migrate your contractors to full employees.
