Contract hiring offers agility and efficiency, but without proper oversight, it can introduce legal risks, compliance gaps, and administrative burdens. We streamline the process so you can focus on productivity—not paperwork. Here’s how we handle these specific complexities for you:
A well-structured contract is the foundation of a successful engagement and includes:
✔ Precise scope of work (deliverables, milestones, and KPIs)

✔ Intellectual property (IP) clauses (who owns the work product)
✔ Termination conditions (notice periods, offboarding protocols)
Misclassifying contractors or violating labor laws can lead to penalties, lawsuits, and reputational damage. We proactively address compliance by:
✔ Proper worker classification (avoiding IRS/state misclassification audits)

✔ Managing tax obligations (W-9s, 1099s, and international tax treaties if applicable)
Contractors should integrate smoothly—not drown in paperwork. We handle:
