Hiring seasonal employees can help businesses meet peak demand, but it also comes with important tax responsibilities. Employers must verify work eligibility, properly classify workers as employees (not independent contractors), withhold payroll taxes and report wages on the appropriate tax forms. Seasonal employees are generally subject to the same federal payroll tax rules as year-round staff, even if they work for only a short time. Proper planning can help you avoid costly payroll mistakes and compliance issues. Contact us if you need guidance before bringing on seasonal workers.
