Safe harbors for misclassified workers under Section 530
Employers misclassifying workers as independent contractors may face audits and penalties. Section 530 allows relief if the employer consistently treated workers as contractors, issued 1099s, and had a reasonable basis such as prior rulings or industry practice. The IRS Voluntary Classification Settlement Program offers partial tax relief if three years of 1099 filings were made and action occurs before an audit.
