Employer-Employee Relationships

Who is an employee?

An employee is an individual:

  • employed by an employer
  • who holds office from an employer and receives payment for carrying on the duties of the office, or
  • who was formerly an employee in the ways outlined above.

For EHT purposes, the Ministry of Revenue considers many factors in the determination of employer-employee relationships, including common law principles and Canada Revenue Agency rulings.

Please refer to Information Bulletin 1-96 How to Identify an Employer-Employee Relationship.
