Practical advice on the correct determination and handling of employment status in a global workplace.
Employers engaging their workforce through different working models to the standard employer / employee relationship can face a myriad of questions with regard to employment status. Determining the correct employment status and differentiated treatment of individuals according to their status presents significant compliance issues for many employers with a number of high profile cases around the world. Even if the distinction between employees, workers (where applicable) and the self-employed usually follows similar criteria, national specificities are still evident.
When labour supply is sourced from across the globe, understanding the employment status challenge is of paramount importance.
