The Nevada Employment Security Division is a state agency responsible for overseeing unemployment insurance benefits and workforce development programs in Nevada. They work to ensure compliance with state laws and regulations related to employment and unemployment benefits.
When it comes to classifying workers, there’s more than meets the eye. Beyond the familiar categories of employees and independent contractors, there’s a third type you need to know: statutory employees.
These workers are unique because they’re technically considered independent contractors, but certain laws require you to treat them as employees for tax purposes. Understanding who qualifies as a statutory employee is essential for maintaining compliance and avoiding legal headaches.
Contractor work arrangements are popular. According to the US Government Accountability Office, about one-third of all businesses and almost 90% of Fortune 500 companies use independent contractors in some capacity. Hiring contractors can be a particularly attractive option for early-stage businesses because it allows them to leverage specialized skill sets while building their internal teams.
But contractors are very different from employees, and the two mustn’t be conflated—or hefty penalties can apply.
Starting a business is exciting, but as soon as you incorporate it, you must follow some critical steps to stay compliant.
One of the most important things to do is understand your startup’s business tax obligations. It’s not the most thrilling part of running a company, but getting it right early on can save you headaches — and money — down the road.
