The whole 1099, employee vs. contractor and throw workmans comp into the mix gets to be a mess.
I think we have tried every variation that we can think of, including bonuses, peice work, percentage pay, hourly pay, sub contracting, partnerships, under the table, over the table, you name it, seems that we have tried and looked into it.
It is still the absolute biggest problem we face in our landscaping business is hiring and maintaining good help.
We pay between $8 and I think top has been $15 an hour.
I have seen my 11 year old son work circles around grown men making twice what he was paid.
If you get too the answer, let me know.
The IRS had a pretty good short blurb of a couple of questions that you needed to ask yourself if the person was a sub, or an employee.
