Overview: To determine whether a worker should be classified as an employee or an independent contractor, the IRS will examine the degree of control your company has over that worker. If you have the right to direct or control the specific tasks and the where and the how of the worker's activities, the IRS will likely consider that person an employee, regardless of the title you've given them. If the person qualifies as an employee, the IRS rules require that the employer withhold income taxes and the employee's share of Social Security and Medicare contributions.
