Description

An Independent Contractor Agreement is used when a business hires a freelancer or consultant rather than a full-time employee. This contract specifies the scope of work, payment terms, deadlines, confidentiality obligations, and liability limitations. Unlike employment agreements, independent contractors do not receive benefits such as health insurance or paid leave. The agreement also clarifies tax responsibilities, ensuring compliance with labor laws and preventing worker misclassification. Businesses use this contract to engage specialists for short-term projects while maintaining flexibility and reducing employment costs.
