Not sure what you mean by "worker classification" and what you think you need to enter about that on your tax return. Do you have W-2's from those employers? If so, you simply enter your W-2's into the software in Federal>Wages & Income. After you enter the first W-2 you click on Add W-2 and enter the other one.

Yes, that doesn't sound like a very good deal for you, but in the world of tax, worker classification issues have to do with employees being treated like contractors and receiving a 1099-NEC instead of a W-2 form.

Since you already receive a W-2 form, the worker classification program that the IRS has won't do anything for you. That program is focused on making the employer pay half of your Social Security and Medicare taxes, and issuing a W-2 when the worker is an employee.

You may want to check with the Department of Labor to see if they can help you achieve what you want to do. Follow this link to get started.
