Summary

The bill directs the Georgia Department of Labor to establish a commission that each year randomly reviews at least 50,000 1099 forms filed by state employers. It will verify that each form correctly reflects the employee’s status and, when a filing is wrong, will provide the worker any remedies available under federal law. The goal is to protect employees from misclassification and tax‑return errors.
