Independent Contractor Agreement Template - New York

If you are a New York resident, a New York Independent Contractor Agreement is a critical document for those individuals wanting to establish and outline in writing certain terms that are agreed upon by a customer and an independent contractor.

The agreement should contain all of the details surrounding the duties that the contractor promises to carry out, any limits on the time period for successful completion of the job as well as information concerning the payment compensation for completing the agreed work. It is important that all conditions are agreed upon before they are included in the agreement. Having this document on hand will mean that the customer legally records that the independent contractor is not an employee. This is important as it means that the individual hiring the contractor will not need to provide benefits (including financial) to the contractor. Such benefits are only given to individuals considered as employees. In New York, there is a five factor test that will help determine whether or not the working relationship with a contractor qualifies as an independent contractor or as an employee.

A New York Independent Contractor Agreement Template can be edited, containing important details with appropriate language.
