Beware of How You "Treat" Your Music Teachers
No, we’re not talking about whether you’re nice to them; we’re talking about whether they are viewed as “employees” or “independent contractors” in the eyes of the IRS and other tax authorities. Many music retailers believe they can lower labor costs and eliminate benefits by treating their music teachers (and other workers, like repair technicians) as independent contractors. While this may be true, store owners need to be aware this has become quite the hot topic, as the wrong classification can have severe and/or irreparable financial consequences! Come join music industry accountants Alan Friedman and Daniel Jobe to educate you on the “Do’s and Don’ts” of how to treat your music teachers.
