Enforcement of Worker Classifciation

Doug Hass was quoted in the article "Tax Court Finds Masonry Workers Are Employees of Corp, Not Independent Contractors" published in Federal Tax Weekly, a CCH publication, discussing enforcement of worker misclassification.  “States and the federal government have really stepped up enforcement of worker misclassification,” said Doug. He also mentioned construction is among the main industries where state and federal governments have focused their worker misclassification investigations. “Other industries receiving increased governmental scrutiny include hospitality, janitorial, technology, and home health care.”
