If you call them independent contractors, yes, but they'll pay more
than they would if you put them on the payroll.

Hello! Thanks to everyone who replied to the fork storage question,
it was really helpful to see photographs.Now for another issue. We may get funding/reimbursement for
rehabbing bikes, then distributing them in a free bike program.
There is currently not enough time or space in the shop to do this
during regular shop hours.What we thought to do was pay mechanics an hourly or per bike
stipend to come in when we're closed and work on the free bikes.
What sort of things do we have to keep track of/worry about in
regards to the money. There could be any number of people working
on the bikes and I would hate to, tax-wise, consider each of them an
employee, especially when the per year total would probably be a few
hundred dollars at most. Is it enough to keep track of who we paid
and where the money went and put the onus on our mechanics to report
it on their personal tax return?Thanks! Brian
