I wonder how would one enforce this. I invoice once per month for the hours I logged (that might include vacation hours), but the invoice itself says "Software Development Services {month} {year}". Or do you mean we wouldn't be able to have vacation as part of the contract? Or not allow a contractor to work for one client for more than X time per year? Seems pretty tricky.
And how or who would enforce this for me, who is an Estonian citizen, Argentinian resident, and operates from under a USA based LLC as a non-resident USA company owner, working mostly for European start-ups? Which country would do the enforcing in this case?
- keithnz 5y agothe US would want to enforce it, not so much to be nice to Estonians / Argentinians, but to to stop US companies bypassing US workers by going overseas and bypassing laws to protect employees.
- learc83 5y agoEnforcement is relatively easy. Many US states regularly pursue enforcement action for misclassification of employees. Companies already report how much they pay contractors to the IRS and state tax agencies, so spot checking companies paying a large percentage of their total wages to contractors is the easiest way to do it. If you’re being paid by any American companies, the most likely theoretical enforcement would be the state the company is based in.
