Sometimes an employer will classify workers as contractors instead of employees. A worker who performs services for an employer is an employee if the employer can control both what will be done and how it will be done. An independent contractor performs services required by employer but is not subject to the employer’s control about how the services are performed. To help determine whether a worker is an employee, the IRS identified 20 factors that may be considered in determining whether there is an employer - employee relationship. The 20 factors and Virginia’s exemptions to employee classification can be found here: https://www.vec.virginia.gov/irs-20-factors-and-exemptions
