The Notice to Employee must include the following information:

1. A statement that the individual’s employment status has been determined to be either an employee or an independent contractor.
2. The specific criteria that were used to make the determination.
3. A statement informing the individual of their right to contest the determination.

Employers who fail to provide the Notice to Employee or who misclassify employees as independent contractors may face penalties and other legal consequences.
