The Landscape Contractors Board, Department of Revenue, Department of Consumer and Business Services, Employment Department, and Construction Contractors Board must adopt rules together to carry out ORS 670.600. 670.600 defines “independent contractor” for purposes of the programs administered by these agencies. This rule is intended to ensure that all five agencies apply and interpret 670.600 in a consistent manner; to clarify the meaning of terms used in 670.600; and, to the extent possible, to enable interested persons to understand how all five agencies will apply 670.600.
