Practice question
A staff member argues that a remote-work arrangement necessarily ends employee status because the work uses the employee’s own computer at an alternative workplace. The parties’ employment relationship is otherwise established. Does the statutory definition support that conclusion?
- No; telecommuting is defined as an employee work arrangement, not automatic termination of employment
- Yes; every remote user becomes a corporate partner
- Yes; computer ownership conclusively proves independent contracting
- Yes; alternative workplace means no employment can exist
- Yes; technology automatically cancels the contract
