Classifying independent contractors and employees

Summary

The bill rewrites the state’s definition of independent contractors to match the Internal Revenue Service’s criteria. It sets specific contract, tax, control, and other requirements that a worker must meet to be classified as a contractor; anyone who does not meet them is treated as an employee under IRS rules. This change would affect both workers and the businesses that hire them by clarifying tax and benefit obligations.
