What do you do when you need a qualified person quickly for a short-term project? For many the obvious answer is to hire a contingent worker or temp from an agency. Others may hire directly - someone they or an employee knows - on contract. The person hired is considered self-employed, no taxes are withheld, no benefits apply. So far, so good.
You also have to determine whether you want to hire a temporary employee or a contractor. It might sound like the same thing, but they are actually very different. Contractors are usually skilled free agents helping your company on a case-by-case or freelance basis.owever, you must report compensation of $600 or more to the IRS for tax purposes. If you hire a temporary employee, whether someone for a longer-term project or a seasonal hire, this person will be treated much like any other employee.
