A freelancer is not automatically an independent contractor and the rules governing classification vary by both region and government body. The TEAM Companies help clients understand who is likely an employee as well as the risks of misclassifying them as an independent contractor.

For crew that should be paid as employees, TTC provides Employer of Record payroll support, managing the withholding and remittance of employer and employee taxes, unemployment claims and workers’ compensation requirements. We answer clients’ questions and provide labor insight to help ensure compliance with state and federal labor laws. Our TTC labor law experts will guide clients through topics from Earned Sick Time to the Affordable Care Act to payroll due date regulations so that their productions can remain compliant and penalty-free.
