An employer-employee relationship exists when a person who hires an individual to perform work has the right to exercise control over the manner and means by which the individual performs his/her services.

A written contract is essential to substantiate the mutual understanding between you and any independent contractor.  Following are some of the factors used to determine the differences between an employee and an independent contractor:

• Control & Direction (who possesses it?)
• Multiple Sources of Income (is all of this person’s income from one source – “you”?)
• Supplies, Tools, Equipment, Place of Work (does this individual supply these, or do you?)
• Business or Contractors License, Workers’ Comp. & Liability Insurance (who is licensed and do they have insurance for their employees & their enterprise?)
• Skill Required (does this person have the skill required to perform the services and to accomplish the desired result?
• Representation (does said individual represent him/herself out to be in business for him/herself?)
