Anemployeeis a person who is employed by a firm or individual for wages or a salary. An employee is also someone who works in the service of another person under the employer's control. On the other hand, anindependent contractoris a person who is given the duty to perform a given duty but is given the chance to choose how to do the project. The independent contractor is liable for his or her actions.

There are both advantages and disadvantages of hiring Tacy as an employer and still as an independent contractor. These are some of the advantages and disadvantages of each of the two cases. Theadvantageof hiring Tacy as an independent contractor is that he will be liable for all the actions he does when performing the assignment, therefore his actions will not affect his superior directly. This will make him be more careful when undertaking the project.Thedisadvantageof hiring Tacy as an independent contractor is thatClean's plans will not be directly used to govern how Tacy works since an independent contractor is given the duty to perform a given duty but is given the chance to choose how to do the project. Clean will not be able to order Tacy on how to work. Theadvantageof hiring Tacy as an employee is that Clean will get the advantage of being able to completely control the work during work time, the work will be done in the way Clean wants.On the other hand, thedisadvantageof hiring Tacy as an employee is that the imagination and skills will be limited as there will be direct monitoring. Tacy will not be able to do the work in the best possible way as he knows. This might make him be ineffective and inefficient in the end.

I would recommendTracy to be hired as an independent contractor since he will be able to employ his imagination and skill as he works. This will make him more productive and efficient.

A. Let's consider that Clean, in addition to hiring Tacy to recruit and hire computer and IT employees, wants Tacy to train and orient the new employees.Would this change your recommendation and why or why not?
