I’ve been both a contractor directly for companies, and contracted through contracting companies (being an employee for a contracting company is usually called being a consultant, which I’ve also been). In either case I would not assume that I could arbitrarily sub-contract my work out to others.
- floatingatoll 7y agoThe ability to subcontract is one of many tests for whether you are an independent contractor or not.
- AmericanChopper 7y agoIn which jurisdiction? How many tests are there? How many do you have to pass? It’s a pretty ridiculous assertion to claim that you must be able to sub-contract to be a contractor, and I’d be surprised if there was even one jurisdiction in the world where that was true. It would mean you could never screen contractors.
