Practice: Ethics Scenario Paper

HRM/300

University of Phoenix




Analyze whether the employee qualifies as an employee or independent
contractor.

In this scenario, an employee is hired by the company Dream Massage a she is hired

as an independent contractor withholding or any employment benefits. However, according

to the company the employees are to work a set schedule, they provide her with clients and

all her massage products but, the company control how she does her work. According to

(Dennis- Escoffier, S. (2016). Employee or Independent Contractor. Journal of Corporate

Accounting & Finance (Wiley), 27(3), 101-104. doi:10.1002/jcaf.22150) “An individual is an

employee for federal employment tax purpose if the individual is considered an employee

under the common- law test applicable in determining the employer/employee relationship.

By using the independent contractors instead of employee’s business can reduce costs and

paperwork from payroll taxes, income tax withholding, unemployment insurance, workers’

compensation, and employee fringe benefits. While these savings have existed for some time,

more businesses are now looking at independent contractors to avoid the requirement under

the Affordable Care Act (ACA) to provide minimum health insurance to their employees or

face a significant penalty. When businesses treat their workers as independent contractors,

the responsibility for paying the employer’s share of payroll taxes, as well as any benefits, is

shifted from the employer to the independent contractor. Due to these differences, it is clearly

less expensive to hire an independent contractor than an employee.”

Discuss whether Dream Massage has potentially violated any employment

discrimination laws.
