News and insight about working in and with today's contingent workforce.
Workforce news and insight from Sean Rehder, a former Recruiter, 1099 Independent Contractor Compliance Manager, and Supplier Qualification Program Manager turned web developer.

The Human Capital Institute just put on this webinar in which I participated . I got 10 minutes to speak on Temps vs. Contract Talent. In particular: - The distinction between traditional temp labor and Contract Consulting Talent
- Acquiring Consultants: HR vs. Procurement
Because time was of the essence, and because I always like getting them, I have added a few take aways for the topic. They will be made available on HCI's site, but you can also get them through the links below. " What Happens to your SS-8 and the IRS" & the IRS Form " SS-8: Determination of Worker Status" The SS-8 is a form that the IRS recommends that an employer is supposed to fill out and send into the IRS when they don't know if their independent contractor is compliant or not. I would always tell companies that you should never, ever fill this out and send it in because the IRS uses them as a source for audits. The same way you never ask a cop what that tall, funny green plant is in your garden. :)
This report backs that up...I've highlighted it in red on the first page. I also included the SS-8 document so they know what it looks like. IC or Employee - The IRS Training Manual - always nice to have.
Manager Independent Contractor Compliance Questionnaire and Contractor Independent Contractor Compliance Questionnaire Screen shots of the questionnaires that I recommend companies ask their hiring managers and IC's. If you view images through your browser, you may have to save the links and open them with another application (like paint) to view the shots.
Approved Vendor List, Independent Contractor and Consultant Directory, and the Preferred Agency List A very general starter kit for companies to start identifying their professsional CW. Hopefully, it will get people start thinking about what will work best for them.
Managing Your Contingent Workforce The article is a 3 part story with my section as the anchor piece. It proposes the idea of forming a Contingent Workforce Talent Management Office (CW-TMO) within the walls of a corporation. :)
