DID YOU HIRE AN EMPLOYEE OR A CONTRACTOR?
This is another area that is often misunderstood.
When introducing a new staff member to your team you need to determine what type of worker you have hired because:
* It affects your tax, super and other obligations (such as workers' compensation insurance) and the records you are required to keep.
* Penalties and charges may apply if you get it wrong.
Some workers are always employees, including apprentices, trainees, labourers and trade assistants.
