What can be done when someone is hired as an independent contractor, but does not receive compensation for their work for several months?

1 Answer

Answer :

I worried about the difference between being an independent contractor qualified through the elected agency versus temp employee of that agency, in regard to receiving what I am owed by the company. If I was just going on as a temp employee through a hiring agency and I was owed nothing then I would give it a try. I am concerned that if I sign on as an employee of the temp agency then there is an issue with what I am owed, it could be harder to get a resolution.
