This article explains the Mass Misclassification Assessment and how clients can use it to validate and update several workers' classifications at once. 

Employee misclassification occurs when a business classifies a worker as an independent contractor for tax and legal purposes but treats them like an employee. To help prevent this, Deel provides a worker classification assessment that will validate your contractor's classification. 

Rather than take the assessment once for each worker, you can now classify multiple workers from the same country using our new Mass Assessment feature. This feature allows you to apply the answers from one Worker Classification Assessment survey to multiple workers within the same country. 

How to Take the Mass Misclassification Assessment

✅ Step 1 - Open the Knowledge hub

From the homepage, hover over the More icon and select Knowledge Hub.

✅ Step 2 - Select Assess Workforce

From the Knowledge Hub tab, scroll down to the Compliance Insights section and click Assess Workforce.

✅ Step 3 - Select the tax residence 

Select the countries you want to assess for potential misclassification risks.

When you click on a country, all workers whose Tax Residence matches your selection will appear. Deselect any workers you’d like to exclude from the compliance survey.

Click Start Assessment.

✅ Step 4 -  Complete the Mass Misclassification Assessment

Clients will be asked to complete:

• Worker’s daily tasks

• Working relationship

• Worker’s role and supervision

• Any additional worker details

✅ Step 5 - Review the Mass Misclassification Assessment Results 

Review and confirm the workers who will have these assessment results applied.

Select Finish to continue.
