There is are checklists[0] to determine contractor vs employee, which vary slightly from location to location, but maintain roughly the same ideas. Companies like Uber want the upsides of having employees classed as contractors, but not the downsides. They should be forced to pick one or the other, rather than trying to straddle the line.
