As a small business owner, it’s important to make sure you understand the legal requirements related to your employees and contractors. Whether you have W-2 employees or independent contractors can impact the legal protections you need to put in place to protect your business.
For example, you might want to use agreements to protect your trade secrets and prevent employees or contractors from leaving to start competing businesses. It’s also a good idea to create a handbook that outlines your policies and procedures for employees, which can help protect your company against potential lawsuits or complaints from employees.
