What criteria are used to determine an independent contractor?
An independent contractor is defined as a person who files a DWC-11-IC “Notice of Designation as Independent Contractor” with the Department of Labor & Training. Although no one factor is determinative, issues such as work schedule control, invoicing, uses of tools/equipment, as well as the existence of a separate liability policy, are taken into consideration.
