In general, an employee is a person who, under the ”usual common law rules applicable in determining the employer-employee relationship,” has the status of an employee. The most important part of this test is whether or not a person works under your direction and control as to the time and manner of work performance.
This section explains the employment relationship as it applies to positions that qualify for IMRF participation. Other positions which do not meet IMRF standards are discussed in the Social Security Appendix (Section 9).
