I have a few questions regarding subcontracting for my building maintenance company.
My company is still fairly small (this is why i'm addressing this issue now).
My company subcontracts out small-medium sized Janitorial contracts. These accounts very from 1-5x a week.
Essentially what we do is we close a deal with a client. We receive keys & alarm codes. Then, we go ahead and walk the building with a couple of our subcontractors. Our subcontractors will give me an estimate to do the routine maintenance and we do a subcontractor agreement.
All of my subcontractors are either LLC's or Corporations. They all have :
- a few employees minimum
- their own general liability insurance
- WorkMans comp insurance
- their own equipment
- their own business licenses / certifications
- They all have other clients & advertise their companies to the public
- They bill me monthly
- They have control of how they complete the jobs
- They set the day and times they can do the work
I'm in Arizona, do I run any risk operating this way (as far as misclassification goes)? I do also have my own insurance, my own business license, my own LLC, etc.
I should note. We do offer other services such as carpet cleaning, window cleaning, and pressure washing . We also subcontract out these projects as well.
