Practice question
A labor supplier lists valuable equipment belonging to an unrelated company as though it were its own relevant operating resources. It provides no ownership, lease or actual-use evidence, and the resource facts remain disputed. Is the unsupported list conclusive legitimacy proof?
- No; the relevant resources and their actual legal and operational connection must be established.
- Any list conclusively establishes ownership and use.
- Equipment anywhere in the country counts automatically.
- A typed inventory eliminates the control inquiry.
- The worker must accept any resource claim without evidence.
