This Independent Contractor Driver Agreement is designed for use by Canadian companies engaging independent contractors for transportation and delivery services. The document is essential for businesses operating in the transportation sector who wish to clearly establish and maintain an independent contractor relationship with their drivers. It includes comprehensive provisions addressing federal and provincial regulatory requirements, including transportation safety standards, insurance requirements, and proper contractor classification. The agreement is particularly relevant in the context of the growing gig economy and e-commerce sector in Canada, where clear delineation of independent contractor status is crucial for compliance with employment and tax laws.
