65AA Application of this Part to those engaged under a contract for services
This Part applies to a person (the independent contractor) engaged under a contract for services as if: (a) a reference to an employee includes a reference to the independent contractor; and (b) a reference to an employer of the employee includes a reference to the person who engages the independent contractor; and (c) a reference to refusing to employ a person includes a reference to refusing to engage a person under a contract for services; and (d) if a person is an employer and also engages an independent contractor—the reference in section 65 to an employer includes the person in both of those capacities.
