Independent Contractor Agreement Template - Michigan

A Michigan Independent Contractor Agreement forms a special relationship between the company or individual hiring an independent contractor and the contractor themselves. The purpose of this document is to secure the status of the contractor as independent and not as an employee. If there is confusion between these two statuses and the hired individual passes as an employee, the customer hiring them would be required to pay additional taxes as well as make contributions to insurance companies of the contractor.

To avoid this, a Michigan Independent Contractor Agreement Template should be used which already has the necessary structure and information within. The agreement will include space to provide information regarding additional terms of the agreement concerning the financial aspect and details of any deadlines. In the event that there is a dispute from one party, the agreement can be used to prove the specific terms that both parties agreed to which in most cases, will be enough to resolve any disputes.

In Michigan, independent contractors are clearly described by the IRS 20 Factor Test which will help distinguish an independent contractor from an employee.
