Why trucking gets audited
Carriers with owner-operators are a top target for worker status audits.
Owner-operators are under scrutiny
State and federal agencies are increasingly focused on carriers with classification gaps with drivers as independent contractors.
Documentation gaps create liability
Missing operating agreements and W-9s are the primary audit triggers for trucking companies.
Multi-state complexity
Carriers operating across state lines face different compliance requirements in each jurisdiction.

Know exactly where every driver stands
Every owner-operator relationship gets reviewed against your state's classification standards. You get a clear exposure verdict — not a stack of legal disclaimers.
See how classification works →One packet. Every driver. Audit-ready.
When an auditor asks for documentation, you need more than a contract. Classifi assembles the full file — W-9, operating agreement, COI, invoices, and a classification memo — for every driver engagement.
