Onboarding
1. What does it mean to be W-2?
W–2 status means that you will become an employee of our staffing partner for the duration of your assignment/s. They will withhold federal and state taxes on your checks instead of you paying a huge amount on tax day and will send you the tax forms you need when it’s time and all of this will be available online.
You may qualify for Employee benefits. Reach out to our staffing partner directly for more information on this. You can reach out to them via the email address yunojuno@greenlight.ai.
