Why contractor management?

Why use contractor management in the Italy?

The Italy has strict rules on contractor classification. The Italy (Local) tax authority (Belastingdienst) actively enforces rules against "schijnzelfstandigheid" (false self-employment). Misclassifying an employee as a contractor can lead to back taxes, social security liabilities, and penalties.

Using a contractor management solution like Jackson & Frank helps you engage contractors compliantly: we assess classification, provide Italy (Local)-law contracts (including modelovereenkomsten), handle payroll and invoicing, and monitor ongoing compliance. If a role becomes permanent, we can convert contractors to employees via our Italy EOR.

This protects your business, keeps contractors happy with proper agreements and timely payments, and gives you flexibility to scale your Italy (Local) workforce without setting up a local entity.
