Employers: Relationship Test: Right or Exercise of Control
Howe
v. UEF [07/07/06] 2006 MTWCC 27
In a case in which a claimant stated that he worked at the direction
of a contractor’s company, the claimant reported to that contractor
when the contractor was on the job site, and the claimant was working
at the direction of that contractor at the time of his industrial accident,
the contractor had the right to direct the claimant and undisputably
exercised that right. The evidence therefore supports a determination
that the claimant was the contractor’s employee. |
