1099Policy

At 1099Policy we're expanding the market for independent contractors by solving the top friction point: business insurance.

[1099Policy @1099Policy]

17 percent

That is the EOR markup most experiential agencies are absorbing on freelancers right now. The same coverage, structured per-gig, lands at a fraction of that. That math gets uncomfortable fast.

Come see us in the Innovation Central @ EMS 2026.

Wheels up to Vegas tomorrow! EMS kicks off Monday at MGM Grand. Find us in the Innovation Central, next to our friends at Worksuite!

Bring the contractor risk question that's been sitting on your desk. We'll bring coffee.

Your talent is ready. Is their insurance?

The folder of contractor COIs your BizAffairs team maintains isn't protection. It's a static record of who handed you a PDF on the day they were onboarded.

Whether that policy is still in force on the day of the shoot is a separate question nobody's checking.

[1099Policy @1099Policy]

The workforce platform category has done a lot of useful work on payments and onboarding.

The verification piece, whether the person actually has the coverage their contract requires, is still a PDF in a shared drive.

A typical experiential activation runs 47 contractors across 5 venues in 3 states.

That's 3 different workers' comp frameworks the agency is silently on the hook for and the budget line nobody writes down.

Heading to EMS next week. Most agencies and brands we'll talk to have a contractor onboarding flow figured out.

Almost none of them can answer the same question for insurance.

Your talent is ready. Is their insurance?

🚀 Day 1 at Field Service Connect in Austin and we're pumped!

As field teams rely more on contractor techs + surge labor, insurance coverage becomes mission-critical.

At the Hyatt? Say 👋

Lyft’s $194M settlement with New Jersey over driver misclassification shows what regulators really care about: coverage gaps.

Classification = Compliance = Insurance.

The future isn’t Occ/Acc- it’s on-demand, compliant workers’ comp.

Louisiana’s new draft rule brings “healthcare tech platforms” under nurse staffing regs-requiring $1M in workers comp or equivalent coverage.

Insurance isn’t a checkbox anymore, it’s infrastructure for modern care delivery.

A century-old child actor case is rewriting Louisiana’s NIL rules.

From Hollywood lots to high school fields- the line between talent, risk & representation hasn’t changed.

Time to build the infrastructure for the NIL era.

The DOL’s latest move? More 1099s, fewer W-2s.

The independent workforce is about to surge- and without rails, speed = risk.

Now’s the time to embed compliance, not chase it.

[1099Policy @1099Policy]

DOL plans to roll back the 2024 IC rule.
That means the pendulum swings toward independent work AGAIN.

Agility’s great- until misclassification hits.

Build the infrastructure now.

The DOL just moved to rescind the 2024 IC rule. It's signaling a new wave of independent contractors.

More 1099s are coming. The question is whether you’ve built the rails for them.

T-minus nothing. Coffee’s brewed.
The 1099Policy crew’s live at CreatorIQ Connect- ready to talk all things creator risk, media liability, and on-demand coverage.

See you there 👋

A top mall operator was routing all contractors through an EOR “just to stay compliant.”
It worked—until it didn’t.
40–70% markups, zero flexibility.
We embedded per-gig insurance right into onboarding.
✅ 50% savings
✅ 100% compliance

#futureofwork #1099Policy

[1099Policy @1099Policy]

Compliance shouldn’t be a constraint.
It should be a competitive advantage.

✅ Faster onboarding
✅ Larger talent pool
✅ Stronger brand protection

Insurance isn’t red tape. It’s infrastructure.

A freelancer falls on set.
No workers comp. No COI. No fallback plan.

Guess who gets the call?
Not the talent platform.
You.

The IC isn’t the only one unprotected.

Disagree with your workers’ comp audit? You can fight back-and win.

But you need tight documentation and a fast response.

Here’s exactly what to do next 👇

Long term, build audit-readiness into your process:

- Assign a compliance lead
- Set up a workflow for COI collection
- Store records securely and consistently

An organized system = fewer surprises, less stress next year.
