At the last weekly Finance meeting, Tom and I discussed the increase in the number of contractor invoices being
processed through accounts payable (AP). We have some concerns as to whether these individuals would be considered truly
selfemployed by the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), or whether the CRA would determine them to be employees.
</em>
</p>
<p>
<em>
If the worker is considered self-employed, then payment, on submission of an invoice, will continue to be handled by AP. If, however, the worker is considered an
employee, they would have to be set up on payroll, as they would be in receipt of income from employment, subject to all legislated statutory withholdings.
