What does the passage of the new (USA) tax law mean for a gig economy increasingly characterized by a professional independent workforce?
A new provision allows sole proprietors, partnerships, and other pass-through entities to deduct 20 percent of their revenue from taxable income.
Designed as a mechanism to fuel small business growth, some argue it’s little more than a tax shelter for wealthy individuals.
While the full impact remains to be seen, what is clear is that the provision incentivizes independent contracting as an alternative to traditional employment.
- But what does that mean for the workers seeking to capitalize on these tax savings? And…
- How should employers prepare to acquire, classify, and manage talent under the new rules?
Neal Bhamre, Senior Vice President at TalentWave, & Roberto Cruz VP Compliance, Senior Legal Counsel, TalentWave as they explore the consequences of the new tax rules—both expected and unintended—on the independent workforce ecosystem.
