This is interesting and surprising to me. I wonder how, for example, Comcast manages this.
Comcast has a huge independent contractor network that they use to subsidize their full-time on-site tech support. All of those contractors wear Comcast shirts, have Comcast written on their trucks, must meet customers at the times that Comcast schedules, and do receive at least a portion of their supplies from Comcast.
- tptacek 15y agoThey're currently being sued for this.
- rsynnott 15y agoAre you sure that they individual support people are self-employed? If they merely work for a contractor company, that would be okay (assuming they're employees of the contractor). Otherwise, it sounds odd.
- courtewing 15y agoI am not sure, but that would make sense.
