The incorrect categorisation of employment relationships can have considerable consequences under tax and social security law. If a freelancer or contract for work is subsequently categorised as a genuine employment relationship, there is a risk of back payments of wage tax and social security contributions as well as possible penalties. A clear contractual and actual demarcation is therefore of great importance from a tax perspective.

Labour law decisions almost always have tax implications. Close coordination between tax advisors and labour law experts ensures that contracts, remuneration models and personnel measures are both legally correct and optimally designed from a tax perspective. This minimises risks, increases legal certainty and ensures efficient payroll accounting.
Employers are obliged to Wage tax and the Social security contributions of their employees correctly, withhold them and pay them to the relevant authorities on time. This also includes employer contributions, supplements and, where applicable, municipal taxes. Errors in payroll accounting can lead to back payments, late payment penalties and liability risks, which is why proper and up-to-date payroll accounting is essential.
Employment contracts, collective agreements or works agreements directly influence the tax treatment of remuneration components. Allowances, bonuses, overtime pay or benefits in kind are subject to different tax regulations. Incorrect structuring under labour law can lead to remuneration that is actually tax-privileged becoming fully taxable or, conversely, to tax risks arising.
