I didn't bother chiming in since it seems it's of no use. You cannot have people come to your place of employ - even without a set schedule and call them contractors.
Imagine that fiasco - just put everyone on 1099 and say "ok, the people who come in first and work the longest have jobs, everyone else - there's the door.
I'd suggest that Tom read this again: Behavioral Control
For example - does Tom plan on offering training? If so:
If the business provides the worker with training on how to do the job, this indicates that the business wants the job done in a particular way. This is strong evidence that the worker is an employee. Periodic or on-going training about procedures and methods is even stronger evidence of an employer-employee relationship. However, independent contractors ordinarily use their own methods.
Now - there's a big difference between speeding and teaching people to speed. Everyone speeds - but imagine charging for a program that is entitled "Speeding - how to beat the cops every time."
So I don't expect to hear how other people are also violating the tax code.
