The problem: organizing, tracking and paying your independent contractors
There are a lot of niches where independent contractors are the best choice for a company. By using independent contractors, you can:
- bring in unique or hard-to-hire expertise, on the short or long term
- top up staffing levels during periods of high demand
- bring back downsized or early-retired employees
- avoid layoffs of full-time staff during temporary downturns
The challenge: independent contractors also create payroll and spend-tracking headaches, such as:
- you have no way to monitor which contractors have been on contract for a long time, and may be candidates for full-time hire
- co-employment legal issues when a contractor works for you over a long period
- difficulty with tracking company spend on contractor services
- extra administrative load due to various government remittances for sole proprietors versus incorporated contractors
- difficulty with setting, and maintaining, consistent company policies on how much to pay each type of contractor
