INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS
Have you been asked or told to get an ABN (Australian Business Number)? Employees do not require ABN's so it may imply that you will be working as an Independent Contractor .
If you are to genuinely work as an Independent Contractor we advise you to confirm this in a Contract for Services and seek legal advice. Independent Contractors may also be called "self employed", "sole traders", "business owners".
