In California, if you report your income on a Form 1099, you are an independent contractor, while if you report it on a W-2 form, you are an employee. Payroll taxes are automatically withheld if you are a W-2 employee; meanwhile, if you are an independent contractor, you are responsible for paying them.
A company that hires an independent contractor is not responsible for tax withholdings, benefits, or workers' compensation coverage for the 1099 employee. The company is, however, responsible for paying the independent contractor for their services. An independent contractor can set their rates or fees.
