Contractor or Employee Online Quiz

Some employers are playing a legal trick on workers to evade obligation to meet minimum employment standards such as overtime rates or vacation pay, and paying premiums for Workers Compensation, Employment Insurance and Canada Pension, and income tax withholding.
The trick is to convince workers that they aren't employees, but "independent contractors."
Often, new employees will be asked to sign a "contract" but simply signing a contract does not make you a contractor.
Although there isn't a simple answer to the question of whether you are legally considered an employee or an independent contractor, take this online quiz to see if you are more likely to be classified as an employee.
