What if the employer supervises the contractors work? Will the contractor then be required to undergo the I-9 verification process?
If the employer supervises the contractor’s employees directly and provides the equipment used by the contractor’s employees, such person might be considered employees of the employer and not the contractor. In such a case, the employer should verify with the contractor that Forms I-9 have been completed by the contractor and that the contractor’s employees are all authorized to work in the United States . Such verification can be included in the contract between the employer and the contractor.
