About Sniff and Go

Team of Employees

At Sniff and Go, we understand the legal distinctions between employees and independent contractors and properly classify our team to ensure compliance with labor laws, protect workers’ rights, and maintain a fair and balanced employment environment.

While there are increased costs associated with a team of employees, the long-term benefits, such as improved service quality and legal compliance, far outweigh any thought of misclassification.
