According to the Internal Revenue Service, there are three categories of control that help determine whether a person is a contractor or an employee. Which one of the following is not one of the three levels of control as defined by the IRS for employee versus contractor?

AFinancial control

BLocale of work performed

CBehavioral control

DType of relationship

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

There are four types of validity that HR Professional should be familiar with: content validity, criterion-related validity, construct validity, and predictive validity. There is no such category as professional validity.

Answer options D, A, and C are incorrect. Predictive validity, content validity, and construct validity are the categories of validity, as part of abiding by the Uniform Guidelines on Employee Selection Procedures.

I'm pretty sure the answer is B) Locale of work performed. The IRS focuses on financial control, behavioral control, and the type of relationship, not the physical location of the work.

I see your point, but I still think it's B) Locale of work performed because that doesn't seem to be a factor in determining contractor versus employee status.
