I want to invite you to join me in this webinar on November 6, 2018, at 12pm PST for about 1 hour or 1 hour and 15 minutes.

I will show you how How to hire Independent Contractors the RIGHT WAY so you don’t end up paying upwards of $10,000 in penalties, back wages, overtime, and worse – plaintiff attorney’s fees for suing your business.

I have even heard from employers who were defending lawsuits referring plaintiff attorney’s fees characterized as EXTORTION FEES. No Kidding!

It is important to have the information that I am going to share with you, especially in today’s gig economy. Unlike the old days, we can expand our business operation quickly in different geographical areas utilizing technology and by hiring independent contractors, instead of putting someone on the payroll, if it makes sense for your business.  

However, if you don’t do it right, you may ended up paying penalties, back wages, overtime, as if these independent contractors were you employees, and it is even possible that you may even pay their attorney’s fees.  Without the right information and proper planning, you may just flush your money down the toilet.

We will go over:

•What is an independent contractor?
•Tests for independent contractor status.
•Benefits of an independent contractor classification.
•Consequences of misclassification.
•Best practices and recent trends.

We will also have a Q&A session where I will answer your questions that you email me in advance about hiring independent contractors for your business. At the end of the session, you will feel confident about your knowledge you have in this area.

I am totally excited and look forward to seeing you soon!
