What's inside your New York Independent Contractor Agreement

Every clause reflects New York law, so you don't have to research it yourself.

New York uses a common-law control test but enforces it aggressively, especially in construction: the Construction Industry Fair Play Act presumes construction workers are employees unless strict criteria are met.

A separate Commercial Goods Transportation Industry Fair Play Act applies a similar presumption to delivery and trucking contractors.

Misclassification penalties in New York can include back unemployment insurance contributions plus fines — courts do not defer to how the contract is labeled.
