In practice, however, Green allows its truckers to quit immediately without giving advance notice. The agreement also identifies the drivers as independent contractors. Green maintains no health or retirement plans for its drivers, and each year it reports their income by issuing Forms 1099–MISC (and not Forms W–2). Green requires its drivers to maintain a commercial driver’s license and be in good standing with…arrow_forwardDonald Waddell got a job at the Boyce Thompson Institute for Plant Research.
