Many among us are taxable “1040 workers,” with regular employers and IRS connections, but an increasing number are “1099 workers” in the changing, less stable economy.
They will be the focus of a 1 p.m. Saturday seminar at SVRC Marketplace organized through Community Alliance for the People, this month in cooperation with the Chamber of Commerce.
Jeff Bulls, C.A.P. president, asks:
- Are you a 1099 worker?
- Does this make you a contractor or an employee?
- Are 1099 workers employees? Or contractors?
“There is a 16-bill package in Lansing that will ultimately decide,” he says: For info, click here.
“If you’re not getting the gravity of these, ask your pastor. Ask the musicians at your church. Ask your friends or family who ‘DoorDash’ for a living, and countless others who are 1099 workers, or who utilize them. Barbers. Beauticians. The list is long.”
Chamber CEO Veronica Horn is to join Bulls as discussion co-moderator.
