Independent Contractor Clause Overview
An independent contractor clause states that the person or company performing services is not an employee, partner, or agent of the other party, and has no authority to make commitments on its behalf.
It's standard in consulting, freelance, and service agreements where the hiring party wants to keep the relationship clearly outside an employment structure, for tax treatment, benefits eligibility, and liability purposes.
Labeling a relationship "independent contractor" in the contract doesn't always control how the relationship is actually treated in practice. The day-to-day working arrangement (control, exclusivity, integration into the business) matters too, so check that the clause's language matches how the relationship will really operate.
