Accounting, Contracts, and Human Resources teamed up to streamline and improve the review and approval process for determining independent contractor status. These changes will ensure compliance with IRS regulations and improve efficiencies for the end user.

Departments need to submit all potential independent contractors through the new process prior to services being provided. Please review the Independent Contractor Determination Procedure for complete details.
