Many businesses unknowingly misclassify workers. If your "contractors" are actually employees under local law, you could face backdated taxes, fines, and legal action. Take this free 2-minute assessment to find out your risk level.
Takes approximately 2 minutes
Which countries do you have contractors in?
Select all that apply. These are the most common countries for UK businesses.
How many international contractors do you currently engage?
Include all workers paid as contractors/freelancers outside the UK.
How long have most of your contractors been working with you?
Longer engagements often increase misclassification risk.
In many countries, a long-term exclusive relationship is a key indicator of employment. Contractors working for you for 1+ years with no other clients are high-risk for reclassification.
How do your contractors typically work?
Select the option that best describes most of your contractor relationships.
Do your contractors work exclusively for you?
Or do they have other clients too?
If a worker only works for you and depends on you for their income, most countries will consider them an employee regardless of what your contract says. This is one of the biggest risk factors.
