Paying an Individual for Services

Procedures have been established for paying employees for services that fall outside their normal range of duties. It is critical that a department determine whether the individual to be hired for a particular job assignment is an employee or non-employee. Refer to the Employee vs. Non-employee status to assist in making such a determination.
