It also inquires about usual course of business and the workers involvement in this regard.

If the major source of

revenue for the company is due to the labor of the worker, then he is probably the employee. If the service offered
by the worker is outside the domain of the usual business conducted by the company, then he is probably an
independent contractor. In my opinion this where most of the debate with companies like Uber is focused on. While
they maintain that it is a technology company, the workers say that drivers are the main component of the revenue
stream, and not the technology. Technology cannot sustain itself without the work of the drivers. On the other hand,
drivers cannot be of any use if there is no technology to find any riders. The workers are in a driver-partner
relationship with the company. So does it help to establish a different role for such workers, quite different from
employees or independent contractor?
