Abator works with both independent (1099 or corporate arrangements available) and W-2 consultants.
Regardless of status, Abator is most interested in establishing long-term relationships. We have been fortunate in this regard, continuing to reassign a majority of our associates to several consecutive projects. On the other hand, we recognize that consultants cannot afford to "put all of their eggs in one basket." We make a practice of encouraging consultants to pursue all opportunities available, and we work with you to prevent dual submissions.
Many brokers advertise big compensation. Abator's position is quite clear. We pay at least 75% of the billing rate, payable every two weeks, to the consultant performing the work. Abator will tell you the expected billing and payout rates before presentation is made. Payout rates are all inclusive, with no additional compensation for expenses. On 1099 independent status the consultant is responsible for his/her own taxes while in W-2 temporary staff situations, about 11% of total compensation is reserved to pay FICA, Medicare, and for Workers' Compensation, Errors and Omissions and General Liability insurance coverage. In any case, compensation may fluctuate based on the assignment, but it is for the consultant to determine if the financial arrangements are suitable.
