The risks of misclassifying independent contractors are real — and costly
Some countries have stricter policies around contractors than others. It’s hard to stay on top of all the regulations and changes when you have global contractors.
Unexpected fines
Companies can face unexpected audits, hefty legal penalties, and damaging lawsuits that stem from employee misclassification.
Impact on M&A
For high-growth organizations, compliance gaps can delay or even derail critical M&A efforts or funding, as issues arise during due diligence.
Talent attrition
Beyond the legal exposure, misclassification can lead to confusion and dissatisfaction among contractors, resulting in talent attrition as top performers seek more stable, clearly defined employment elsewhere.
