OTHER INFORMATION

Been asked or told to get an ABN?

This may mean you are to work as an Independent Contractor and will not be an employee.

OR it is an attempt by the business to set up a "sham" contract.

Beware!

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".
