SPECIAL OFFERRest assured, Legal Zebra's beautifully concise Contractor Agreement covers all these key points. without the wordy waffle (you've come to despise from Ye Olde Worlde Lawyers).
Plus, you'll get easy to follow tips and examples to help you confidently turn your template into a legal document, customised for your requirements.
You can include the details of the Service Provider, either a company or an individual, and also the name(s) of the Individual Service Provider who will actually do the work.
Outline the services the Service Provider is required to provide under the Contract. Is it simply showing up looking good in a suit each day? Weaving baskets, taking photos, delivering software magic or, perhaps, managing the neighbour's angry dog who won't stop barking? You decide!
State when payment is required. For example, it could be weekly, monthly or let's say 7 days after a job is completed and invoiced. Oh, and by the way, are you paying in cash or crypto?
Specify the work location and hours the Contractor will work. This is optional, often a Contractor (aka, Service Provider) will operate from home during their own hours. If that's the case, you can leave this bit out. In other cases, it's all important that they show up at East Bu%$ F@#! on time and good to go, Monday morning at 9 am sharp! There's a space in the template for that if you need it.
The template makes it clear that the Service Provider assigns intellectual property to the Service Recipient. Here goes with subtitles: That means, if you hire someone, you will own the IP rights in the materials they develop for you.
The document states the Service Provider is an independent contractor (not an employee) and therefore responsible for paying all taxes, superannuation and workers’ compensation. This is intended to cover you in case the person you've hired hits you up for employee extras (like holiday pay or free staff lunches) that weren't part of the deal.
✅ Yes, tick! This comprehensive Contractor Agreement contains all of the key points for a solid agreement.
You choose the applicable law if there is a dispute. For example, choose "the laws of NSW" if you live there so you won't have to travel to another state if there is a dispute about the agreement.
SPECIAL OFFERAn Independent Contractor Agreement is a document used to engage staff who are "independent" in the sense that they are not employees. Contractors run their own business and as such they are generally responsible for paying their own tax, super and other entitlements and fall outside of the requirements that apply to employees. For example, they don't earn holiday pay or operate under the direction of an employer. An "independent contractor" is often simply called a "contractor", for short. The agreement with a contractor is therefore called a Contractor Agreement rather than an Independent Contractor Agreement. If you are a contractor, you should put an Independent Contractor Agreement in black & white and ask your client to sign it. It will help you get paid and protect your rights. Likewise, if you’re hiring a contractor, make sure you get the agreement in writing to clearly set out expectations and clarify that you not responsible for employment type obligations like annual leave and sick pay.
