Ohio Admin. Code 3364-25-44 - Independent contractor status
The university of Toledo will classify individual service providers as independent contractors only when there is a reasonable basis for such a determination and in compliance with federal standards. As used in this policy "independent contractor" is defined as any individual service provider who contracts with the university to provide specialized or requested services on an as-needed or project basis. Such services may include personal, consulting or other one-time services.
This policy is to provide guidance for proper determination of independent contractor status for those providing services to the university. It is in the university's best interest to evaluate these services prior to agreement or payment processing to ensure compliance with university policy and federal tax guidelines.
Classification of an individual service provider as an
independent contractor is completed by human resources
and talent development "HRTD" and such
determination is required prior to service commencement.
