Is your company the sole or major source of income for the individual?

Is the work performed on your premises?
Employees are ordinarily required to work on-site.
ICs are free to work off-site, such as in a home office.
12.
Do you (or can you) require the individual to submit regular reports, either written or oral?
Employees may be asked to provide status or activity reports on a regular basis.
ICs are responsible for producing a final deliverable and are not, therefore, required to provide interim reports.
13.
Do you pay the individual by the hour, week, or month?
Employees are usually paid at fixed intervals.
ICs are generally paid for their results, not the amount of time worked.
