An independent contractor is an individual or company that provides services to another person or entity without an employer-employee relationship, and is usually self-employed. There are two main types of independent contractors: a regular independent contractor, who is hired to provide services for a specific project or job, and an independent contractor who is self-employed and provides services on a regular basis. Independent contractors typically control their own working hours, set their own rates, and are not subject to the same employment regulations as employees.
