Report Link WORKER CLASSIFICATION: WILL THE IRS AND OTHERS AGREE WITH YOU? (pdf).Nexsen Pruet - August 06, 2008 Employers often face a business decision about how to treat a particular worker or group
of workers: Are the individuals independent contractors or employees? Often, the independent
contractor classification is attractive to employers because it affords certain flexibility. However,
there are a number of factors that must be considered when deciding how to classify workers. Report Link Legislation Proposed to Modify Rules Regarding Employers’ Classification of Individuals as Independent Contractors.McGuire Woods LLP - May 01, 2008 Since enactment of Section 530 of the Revenue Act of 1978, the Treasury Department has been precluded from issuing guidance on how properly to classify workers. This may soon end if the Taxpayer Responsibility, Accountability, and Consistency Act (H.R. 5804) is enacted. It was introduced on April 15, 2008, by Democratic Representatives Jim McDermott, John Tiery, and Richard Neal, each of whom serves on the House Ways and Means Committee. H.R. 5804, among other things, would amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”) by adding a new Section 3511 containing rules regarding employers’ classification of individuals as independent contractors. Specifically, Section 3511 would limit the bases upon which an employer could reasonably rely in classifying an individual as an independent contractor. H.R. 5804 also would increase financial tax penalties for employers who misclassify workers as independent contractors without a reasonable basis.
